I'm seeing this, but as a normal user. Same version of mailutils
(1:1.2+dfsg1-4). I'm running a current lenny with a stock 2.6.26-1-686
kernel.
Certain .mailrc files cause it. I tried to pare down an example file,
but found it wasn't any particular line. That is, I can remove bits
from the beginning or from the end or from the middle and the segfault
disappears. Unfortunately, to protect my user's privacy, I cannot
forward the file. The file contains only aliases at this point, and no
unprintable characters or obvious syntactic errors. I prepended one line
(alias foobar f...@bar.org) so I can upload the end of an strace:
gettimeofday({1232988253, 523429}, NULL) = 0
getrusage(RUSAGE_SELF, {ru_utime={0, 0}, ru_stime={0, 4000}, ...}) = 0
time(NULL) = 1232988253
times({tms_utime=0, tms_stime=0, tms_cutime=0, tms_cstime=0}) = 1865617403
open("/etc/mail.rc", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 4
fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=607, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0xb7f93000
read(4, "# Default .mailrc\n# Set prompt st"..., 4096) = 607
read(4, ""..., 4096) = 0
close(4) = 0
munmap(0xb7f93000, 4096) = 0
