Csaba is sending you down a good path. There is a rpm command, I think 
something with a -q option to verify the hashes of the installed files. Start 
with the package containing a2ps, then work out to anything that it depends on. 

Back when Rick Bradley and I worked together, we had this happen to a piece of 
perl code we where using. Went to lunch and came back to it working right 
again. We chalked it up to a cosmic ray affecting the cached version of the 
library. Once it flushed the cache and pulled fresh from disk, all was right 
again.

BTW, for getting the stack trace, don't forget to set ulimit to a sane value 
and then research it with gdb. But I think you will find after hunting for the 
broken files on disk, you will be ok.
