valgrind is your friend.

Ok, so I guess I'm not sight-seeing today. Turns out that the reason the
OOo 1.1.2-5 builds were failing was a change to glibc (a good one, just
bad timing for me) that will abort() programs if they have double-frees
in them. Well, guess what, OOo builds tools that evidentally have
double-frees, but unfortunately the tool in question is rsc, which is a
pile of crap that's 10 years old and nasty code. So maybe I can get that
fixed today using the fairly quick, free wireless at OOoCon.
