Daemon mode.

Sorry if that wasn't clear. Those switches were enabled during the 
build. And the strace info above was taken DSPAM configure with those 
switches enabled.

This switch was not enabled.

Those are certainly quite different from the ones I used (optflags and 
just -g -O2).

Neither am I. Those flags are what Red Hat/CentOS use by default to 
build packages. With their brainpower I would guess that they gave them 
some thought and figured out those flags were the right ones to use :)

gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-4) (GCC)
It's the one that ships with CentOS 6.5.

FWIW DSPAM has not crashed and is still humming along fine processing a 
few hundred emails since I used the -g -O2 flags.
