Fresh install from their little blue box..

they're official or not.  A couple of people chimed in that a Solaris
box or two gave the segfault, including Solaris 8.  I'd like to see
one or two posts on that indicating whether that was from the Sun
additional software CD, or from sunfreeware, or self-compiled or what.
I.e. if Sun is shipping the bad version, I want that documented.
