I am running xymon 4.3.0-0 beta 2 on a RHEL 5.4 x86_64 arch.
Every 5mins or so, I get an alert that hobbit_rrd has crashed, and I get a ton of core files.

I have done fresh recompiles of multiple versions of xymon, used different versions of the rrd packages, and this error still constantly pops up.
I get a ton of errors in rrd-data.log:

I've honestly never had this problem before, and I'm pretty baffled.
