debugging signal 11 on -current ...

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend how to debug the following seg fault:

	pid 39296 (synergys), uid 2072: exited on signal 11

This only happens on -CURRENT. And currently happens 3-5 times daily.

I have built sysutils/synergy with debugging symbols via:

	#cd /usr/ports/sysutils/synergy
	#make clean
	#make CFLAGS=-g STRIP=
	#make CFLAGS=-g STRIP= install

and have used gdb(1) to attach to the running PID and bt the sucker.

But I'm not sure if that's the way to investigate/findout why this program is
seg faulting.

/usr/X11R6/bin/synergys doesn't actually core dump either :(

Can someone give me some hot tips on how I can debug this further.

Cheers
