I'm quite sure it has to do with library unloading, I'll attach a Debian
bug pointing to that (and fixing it). Comments in the code suggest also
problems with "buggy compilers" in this direction -- I don't think that
linking or not linking pthread is the primary reason for this bug. The
debian package does not link against pthread and doesn't have the
segfault.

Interestingly, the debian package still has the patch to fix the bug I
linked whereas in Ubuntu it seems to got lost somehow... I think syncing
the latest debian package is the best solution.
