Pcb-rnd is a fork. Take it as a totally separate project. Since pcb-rnd 
does not have branches, its name is simply pcb-rnd. I am a pcb-rnd 
developer, all my improvements and fixes go in pcb-rnd. In majority of the 
cases these fixes don't end up in mainline so it's very unprobable you 
get a new segfault in mainline after I make a modification in pcb-rnd.

Anything else called "pcb" on this list is a reference to one of the 
branches of mainline.
