Hmm, I was hopeful that there might have been a build glitch (some 32-
vs. 64 bit thing).  Isolating such a problem will be easier if we can
reproduce the error on a system whose Zope you built yourself from source.

I wouldn't rip out third-party products, esepecially those which have no
C extensions:  they can hardly be provoking the segfault.  Hmm, I wonder
if you might be using a third-party library which *does* (e.g., an RDBMS
or LDAP client library, PIL, etc.).  Verifying the mechanism used to
build them would be important, too.
