Hello Henrik,
I 've installed the 4.2.0 version of hobbit on a fresh installation of RedHat EL4 and since yesterday afternoon we have 25 core-dumps in the server directory and about 50 core-dumps in the server/tmp directory. Everything looks like the problem that me and Vernon had in july 2005 with a 4.0.x version. All pages look look like as we've just posted an evergreen page ;-)
Here is what the gdb tool says (using the core-dump in the server directory):
