That's not 100% correct. It could be there are missing dependencies,
it could be that realplayer is loading the wrong version of a library
(compiled on RH but ran on Debian, has happened multiple times), it
could be that it's missing a file, ...
I other words, whilst segfaulting is most probably RP's fault, it is
not entirely out of our power to make sure we provide an environment,
or more generally, the conditions where RP can run.
