Subject: segfaults on mandrake...

Hello,

I have reproducible, but not constant segfaults (sometimes hangups) on
Mandrake 9.2 (download edition, or what -- I do not use it
frequently).

The packages:

ruby-tk-1.8.1-1mdk
ruby-mysql-2.4.5-1
ruby-dbi-0.0.21-1
ruby-1.8.1-1mdk

Ruby version:
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25) [i586-linux-gnu]

Some segfault places:

/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/DBD/Mysql/Mysql.rb:418: [BUG] Segmentation
fault
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25) [i586-linux-gnu]

/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/DBD/Mysql/Mysql.rb:425: [BUG] Segmentation
fault
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25) [i586-linux-gnu]

/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/dbi/row.rb:39: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25) [i586-linux-gnu]

(eval):762: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.1 (2003-12-25) [i586-linux-gnu]

Sometimes also segfaults in my code. The program makes heavy
DBI::StatementHandle using (and output to stdout) when the crash
occurs.

This is a P4 celeron 2100MHz machine. On my home machine, which is a
P233, which is a also a 1.8.1 (2003-11-11), the crash never occurs.

Any tips?

Ferenc
