Maybe, if you share what exactly you have tried, what worked/didn't work,
with the relevant FS log messages... like I mentioned earlier, I could try
to take a look.
To be honest, I don't think I have encountered a very difficult problem
with FS so far, so I don't think I had to do much... of course, apart from
the 2 different instances of segmentation faults.

PS> I created a 3rd JIRA as well, for the 2nd segmentation fault.. but I
don't think you are facing seg faults.
