I've just installed Ubuntu Linux 6.06, and qmail patched with John Simpson's consolidated patch that adds auth, tls, and a bunch of other good stuff. Qmail-remote crashes. I don't have much more information other than the "qmail-remote crashed" message in the log.

Unpatched qmail runs ok, so the problem is apparently introduced by the patch. I've tried patch versions 6c5 and 6ca, and they both crash.

I run qmail with various versions of this patch on other systems (Freebsd and Suse Linux), and it doesn't crash. So I don't think the patch is "bad", but something about installing it on Ubuntu, or the way I installed it, seems to be causing problems. I did get some compilation warnings when I compiled qmail, but I also got warnings when I compiled the unpatched qmail that worked. I'm not 100% sure if all the warnings were the same in both cases.

Does anybody have any ideas what might be wrong or where I could look to figure it out?
