Thanks for the info. Could you please pack your BOINC directory and send it to 
me? I want to take a closer look at the error logs and slot directories. And 
maybe I can reproduce the SIGSEGV with your BOINC dir.

Use tar to pack the BOINC dir:
tar -jcf boinc-dir.tar.bz2 /path/to/your/boinc-dir

And send it to: frank at thomas-alfeld.de
