I don't know anything about LWP, but if it uses the itimer functionality 
or the SIGALRM signal, then you should know that current release of v2.02 
has a bug in these areas.

I can send you a patched source of a library module which you will need 
to compile and put into libc.a, so you could check whether these patches 
solve the problem.

Please post a symified traceback printed when it crashes.  ``Horrible 
SIGSEGV death'' is very colorful, but doesn't really explain anything.
