Of course, there are other executables showing problems.
An easy one is /sbin/initlog.
When run the way the initscripts run it, it segfaults,
gdb gives the following (infinite?) backtrace, consisting
of these:
#8696 0x00920546 in vsyslog () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#8697 0x0091fecf in syslog () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#8698 0x00920546 in vsyslog () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#8699 0x0091fecf in syslog () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#8700 0x00920546 in vsyslog () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
Here are the last lines strace give me:
stat64("/dev/log", {st_mode=S_IFSOCK|0666, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_DGRAM, 0) = 3
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/dev/log"}, 110) = 0
close(3) = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
