OK, I tried the new coreutils 5.93-3 with checkinstall.
I modified the checkinstall script to do see what was happening with the
first command that was failing:
ldd `which mkdir`
then running strace on the first command that failed:
checkinstall 1.5.3, Copyright 2001 Felipe Eduardo Sanchez Diaz Duran

Do you have any suggestions on narrowing down what the problem might be?
No, if it's not segfaulting when you run the commands from the command

doing to the environment.
