I'm not sure I will have the time or ability to do that. I solved my 
immediate problem by upgrading to Fedora Core 5. I've been working with 
the folks on #centos on irc.freenode.org to see if we can get to the 
bottom of it.

Basically, I need some way to simulate the specific routines in the codec 
where it segfaults so we can test just the math portion of it on various 
platforms to see if we can replicate it.
