Well, we just experienced something like this here with any simple
program containing sprintf, cout, etc.  I discussed it with some of
the people I know, and at least in our case, it's apparently a known
libc6 (glibc) 2.0.5 issue.

It also seems to go away if you use static linking.  One person noted
that this was because you avoid some weak bindings from libpthread
that are causing the segfault.  I'm not positive that you're having
the same problem, but it sounds similar.
