I haven't tried RHEL5 yet, but it happens with RHEL 4 and Solaris 10.

I'm wondering if the core dump is around string manipulations? I bumped into a similar problem that traced to the strings being a NULL rather than a pointer to a string. This happened because the error returns from some string functions weren't being checked before trying to use these returns as strings.

  Check error returns from mapstring functions.

It may be we are seeing something similar where an error message isn't able to be read as the program core dumps before the message is stored.
