Hmm. I don't know how to proceed here. I don't doubt that this is happening to you, but I'm unable to reproduce it. :-\
Can you install a segv handler to simply write(0,...) and sleep() so that you can attach a debugger to a live process when this happens, and poke around a bit? You might get more information from a live process than a corefile. For example, "remainder" comes form chunk_at_offset(p, nb), so it might be interesting to look at that routine and see if something is going wrong in there...?
