For any of you who have been seeing an inordinate number of segfaults
on your latest Mandrake systems, libsafe-2.0-2mdk is at fault.
Here is the backtrace froma given program on my system. This program
runs just fine once I have removed libsafe from the preload list.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x400a2b8b in _IO_padn () from /lib/libc.so.6

Maybe I will d/l libsafe 2.0 source and dig into this one. If I find
time. :-)
