Thanks for the report. Not sure what changes made in -2 could trigger that 
segfault.
Could you please try to get a backtrace?

Apparently nobody had run valgrind on the collector for a long time and there 
are lots of bugs, but those have been there for a long time. Will probably 
address them by tomorrow and post a patch, so that if you have no luck with 
the backtrace you can run it on valgrind and get a meaningful output.

(oh, and valgrind totally fails on readahead(8), but its code is a lot cleaner 
and I wouldn't expect many bugs there.)

Cheers,
