Hi All,

So I decided to upgrade to rc2 to deal with the fixes for reported
memory leaks.

Unfortunately, it now segfaults :-(

Operating environment is Redhat AS3 update 8. eventlog and syslog-ng v2
rc2 are configured with default options.

running under strace I see:

poll([{fd=10, events=POLLOUT, revents=POLLOUT}, {fd=9, events=POLLOUT,
revents=P OLLOUT}, {fd=11, events=POLLOUT, revents=POLLOUT}, {fd=12,
events=POLLOUT, reven ts=POLLOUT}, {fd=13, events=POLLOUT,
revents=POLLOUT}, {fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {f d=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=8,
events=POLLIN, revents=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN }, {fd=5,
events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 11, 29882) = 6
write(10, "Sep 13 13:36:47 local_s at scribe.i"..., 105) = 105
write(10, "Sep 13 13:36:47 host.fq.dn"..., 139) = 139
write(10, "Sep 13 13:36:47 host.fq.dn"..., 195) = 195
write(10, "Sep 13 13:36:47 host.fq.dn"..., 204) = 204
write(10, "Sep 13 13:36:47 host.fq.dn"..., 97) = 97
write(10, "Sep 13 13:36:47 host.fq.dn"..., 115) = 115
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
getpid()                                = 11482
kill(11482, SIGSEGV)                    = 0
sigreturn()                             = ? (mask now [])
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
Process 11482 detached

Any thoughts? I wanted to do more debugging but I need to get a test
system together for that.

Cheers,
Harry
