Things are going weirder and weirder.

If I debuild the portmap package I got the segfault.

I produced the folowing testcase :
---------------------------
seb:$cc -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fpie -DHOSTS_ACCESS -DCHECK_PORT -DIGNORE_SIGCHLD \
	     -DFACILITY=LOG_DAEMON   -c portmap.c pmap_check.c from_local.c
seb:$cc -pie  portmap.o pmap_check.o from_local.o  -lwrap -o portmap
seb:$./portmap -d
Segmentation fault
seb:$
----------------------------
But if I do :
----------------------------
seb:$cc -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fpie -DHOSTS_ACCESS -DCHECK_PORT -DIGNORE_SIGCHLD \
             -DFACILITY=LOG_DAEMON  portmap.c pmap_check.c from_local.c -o portmap -lwrap
seb:$./portmap -d
portmap[10123]: cannot bind udp: Permission denied
seb:$
----------------------------

Strange isn't it ?
