Actually, I would guess it's kernel-related.

Per your original report, you are running:

> Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.4-bar

This looks like a self-compiled kernel.  Please check whether this bug
occurs with the Debian kernel packages, or at least check that you have
the core CONFIG_SYSVIPC option enabled in your kernel config.

If neither enabling CONFIG_SYSVIPC in your custom kernel, nor booting a
Debian kernel, fixes this problem for you, *then* we should look at it
as a libc problem. :)
