Hello!
I know that this is not the venue for this type of complaint (and I've also 
talked directly to the persons that this directly concerns).

The RPM that is provided by the EPEL repo 4/5 is not to be trusted. I'm not 
sure if it is an bug or just me that has suffered the problem with poundctl 
being weird and throwing segfaults towards me all the time. In any case I feel 
that it is needed to be told here since people will search this list in the 
future if they would have the same problem.

The solution is simple either build from source that you find on the apsis 
website or use the src rpm provided by the third party. In either case it works 
fine, but if you use the RPM provided by EPEL it seems to have some trouble.

Quick howto:

1.       Yum install gcc openssl-devel pkgconfig pcre-devel 
google-perftools-devel rpm-rebuild

2.       wget 
http://www.invoca.ch/pub/packages/pound/pkg/ils-5/SRPMS/pound-2.5-2.el5.src.rpm

3.       rpmbuild --rebuild pound-2.5-2.el5.src.rpm

4.       cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/x86_64/

5.       rpm -Uvh PACKAGENAME
