If we have known segfault bugs we should fix them.  I can remove the tag
on the stable branch and move it to your bug fix commits.  Nice catch.

I need some input from our package devs as to the impact on the stable
release packaging.  I can push the release back another week or two to
allow our package devs to create new packages.  Sorry about the extra
work.  This is the first time I've had to do this.
