  Binary package hint: thunderbird
  
  If nsswitch.conf is set with:
  
  passwd:         compat ldap
  group:          compat ldap
  shadow:         compat ldap
  
  My ldap config does work as I'm using it for login authentication.
  
  thunderbird-3.0 always segfaults:

  ...even with no .thunderbird-30 dir:

  Changing nsswitch back to NIS works:
  
  passwd:         compat nis
  group:          compat nis
  shadow:         compat nis
