You wouldn't expect that in an IT -Director-.

What I find particularly intereesting about that is that it's no longer
attached to a tty after it segv's.

Even more interesting is that the process group is reset in such a way
that the PPID becomes init's.  What's the -full- command line that's
segfaulting?  Does it include -bg in its arguments?  If not, these two
things are a bit odd.

Is it a cron/cgi/whatever background or a terminal-interactive job that
segv's on you?
