Would it be possible to run an unstripped executable and make it dump 
core? I guess that doing something like "ulimit -c 10240 ; olsrd" will 
do the job. It would be great if you could then send me you unstripped 
executable and the core dump.

I'd love to see where the crash happens. We now know that 0.4.8 contains 
quite some show stoppers in the link quality code. 0.4.9 fixes those 
that are known to us. However, you seem to have found a new one. Time to 
investigate this for 0.4.10.

Oh, BTW, when exactly did you check out the source code from CVS?

No, just embarrassingly bad algorithms. :-)
