That's good, but you might be storing a database handle in a persistent global of closure variable somewhere, and that could lead to a segfault. It's hard for me to give you detailed debugging help on this, but my basic advice is that if you have repeatable test (i.e. it segfaults every time), you just need to comment out code until it stops segfaulting and you'll find the culprit. If you want to make sure it's your code and not RegistryLoader itself, try just preloading an empty script that does nothing. It that doesn't segfault, then the problem is in your code and it's interaction with being loaded in the parent process. - Perrin
