I can't know for sure, but I had the same problem. I used valgrind
(<http://valgrind.kde.org>) to find out more.

The Problem in my case was, that some intermediary object in a more
complex statement was garbage collected to early. After assigning the
intermediary result to a temporary variable to prolong it's lifetime,
the SEGV ceased.

I can warmly recommend valgrind, it's a *great* tool to find memory
related problems.

Hope this helps,

Stefan.
