I can confirm that I too have seen this particular error. My setup is very similar to everyone else´s, home directories are attached to the workstations from a NFS server, and user authentication is done by LDAP.
I´ve been able to duplicate the segmentation fault errors with thunderbird. I have also seen the same problem with gtkpod (of all applications?). Surprisingly enough, I was able to resolve this issue by installing the nscd package. Once it was installed, the segmentation fault error messages (miraculously) went away. I was immediately able to load thunderbird without issue and gtkpod also ran without a hitch. Years of system administration have taught me to be cautious, so I rebooted each workstation several times to confirm that the fix would continue working, and sure enough it did. I hope this helps.
