bikero@phreak:~$ /usr/local/bin/procmail `perl -e '{print "A"x10240}'`=A
^Cprocmail: Terminating prematurely
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This is not related to LINEBUF overflow. This is a minor bug only,
procmail segfaults when SIG{INT,HUP,TERM} is delivered and no input
passed. Please don't send such clueless examples without prior
investigation of issue.
