Good, that is what we expect people to do, but a lot of people make
changes and then don't tell us when they ask for help.

So, it almost sounds as if either syslogd or klogd are the problem,
and not init. That is uncommon (but then, use of i586 is no longer
common). You could try sourcing /etc/sysconfig/rc and then
${rc_functions}, and then try the two loadprocs from the bootscript
to identify which one is causing the problem (do it in a second
terminal, then you can kill it if it hangs).
To work out what is going on, you'll probably need to learn gdb -
if you stripped everything, that is unlikely to help. Using strace
might show you what it is calling, but since everything is built for
i586 that won't be much help in working out why it segfaults.
Sorry, I don't have any idea what the root cause of this is. I
seem to remember there was a recent problem building something
(maybe glibc?) on i586. Did you apply any extra patches to get
anything to compile ?
