chewlies, I apparently moved this question from Categorized Questions and Answers just as you were in the process of posting it here.

I have changed How do I stop/debug/trace segmentation faults? (Moved from Q&A) to point to this node.

Just for reference, please do not post to both Q&A and SoPW at once. ;-)
