>Organization:
The Strauser Group
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD kanga.honeypot.net 5.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #0: Sun Mar 28 14:12:37 CST 2004 root@kanga.honeypot.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NEW_KANGA i386

The ports system is current to within a few hours of when I'm writing this.
	
>Description:
/usr/local/bin/aide (from the security/aide port) fails with a SIGBUS every
time it's run with any arguments (that is, just getting the help message
isn't enough to trigger it).  This is the only program on my system that has
these errors.

>From gdb, when run as 'aide -u':

    #0  0x080962c9 in __vfprintf ()
    #1  0x0808c69d in vsnprintf ()
    #2  0x0804ee1a in dofprintf ()
    #3  0x0804faf8 in db_writespec_file ()
    #4  0x0804ca05 in db_writespec ()
    #5  0x08057066 in main ()
    #6  0x08048139 in _start ()

	
>How-To-Repeat:
Run 'aide' with any options that make it start a processing run:

    root@kanga:/tmp# aide --update
    Caught SIGBUS/SEGV. Exiting
    Abort trap (core dumped)

    root@kanga:/tmp# aide --init
    Caught SIGBUS/SEGV. Exiting
    Abort trap (core dumped)
