Interesting point.  It doesn't seem to be the case however.  Given this
segfault:

Oct 30 22:00:03 pvr kernel: [1937721.428406] mythbackend[13502]:
segfault at 28 ip 0620ef91 sp b2ffe140 error 4 in
libQtCore.so.4.8.1[607d000+2d4000]

There was nothing in /var/crash about it.

However given a different segfault:

Oct 29 16:02:05 pvr kernel: [1829843.051149] mythcommflag[2020]:
segfault at b37fb3f4 ip 080626cc sp bfa4d1f0 error 4 in
mythcommflag[8048000+6e000]

There is indeed a:

-rw-r-----  1 mythtv mythtv 11878631 Oct 29 16:02
_usr_bin_mythcommflag.103.crash

So what's different about these processes and why one's segfault is
being caught by apport and the other is not?
