I posted this problem on the list a while ago, but I never got it
fixed.

If I start gmond without the mcast_if in gmond.conf it starts fine, but
binds to the wrong interface. As soon as I add "mcast_if eth1" it dies
with a segfault, ie

ctopod:/~# ./gmond/gmond -d12
pthread_attr_init
creating cluster hash for 4 nodes
hash_create size = 4
hash->size is 5
gmond initialized cluster hash
Using multicast-enabled interface eth1
Segmentation fault

This occurs with gmond 2.5.0 from the debian package, and 2.5.4 compiled
from source.

aargh.  I've done "route add -host 239.2.11.71 dev eth1" to set the route
up.

gmond is running correctly on two other multi homed machines with the same
motherboard, so I am puzzeled as the what the issue is. The only thing
different about this box is that eth0 is in a PCI riser (it's a 2u case).

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
