Problem with segfaulting Apache 1.3.31-6 on Debian Sarge

[Adrian Neumaier <neumaier@shb.de>]

Hi,

with the latest apache update i get an segmentation fault in apache 
while reading /usr/share/misc/file/magic/mime.

If i do an 'strace apache -F' i get the following output:

open("/usr/share/misc/file/magic.mime", O_RDONLY) = 4
fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=26861, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 131072, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 
0) = 0x48997000
read(4, "# Magic data for KMimeMagic (ori"..., 131072) = 26861
read(4, "", 131072)                     = 0
close(4)                                = 0
munmap(0x48997000, 131072)              = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++

If i run it with 'gdb --args apache -F' i get this:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread 1076565824 (LWP 23328)]
0x401f0568 in strcmp () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6

This even happens with when i run apache with -X...

I've no clue why this happens - nor why it happend only last sunday 
morning when apache was restarted during the logrotate. Apache-ssl is 
not affected by this behavior.

Some Package informations:

ii  apache         1.3.31-6       Versatile, high-performance HTTP server
ii  apache-common  1.3.31-6       Support files for all Apache webservers
ii  libc6          2.3.2.ds1-16   GNU C Library: Shared libraries and 
Timezone
ii  libc6-i686     2.3.2.ds1-16   GNU C Library: Shared libraries [i686 
optimized]

Kernel is a 2.6.7

Has anyone any hint for me how to get rid of this? Sadly using apache2 
is not a solution for me...

Adrian
