Recompiled sources with flag -DNO_CLEAN (I mention this because it might have impact).

After that, I tried restarting rpcbind via:

root_at_localhost: [src] service rpcbind restart
rpcbind not running?
Starting rpcbind.
rpcbind debugging enabled.
can't get local ip6 address: hostname nor servname provided, or not known
couldn't create ip6 socketSegmentation fault (core dumped)
/etc/rc.d/rpcbind: WARNING: failed to start rpcbind


Now the "segmentation fault" is new. I regret not having the core or any more infos on
that, I disabled all core dumping options and debugging facilities on that host of
mine ...
