You can connect to a remote server just fine. The problem is selecting a schema (database). If you specify the schema on the connection screen, it does this at connection time, and the segfault is immediate. Also note that the binary bundled in mysql-gui-tools-5.0r6-linux-x86_64.tar.gz downloaded from mysql.com exhibits the same exact behavior.
