You may have found a bug.  Do you still have the core file from the
segmentation fault?

If so, do you know how to use a debugger to get a traceback, so we can
find out where pqutil (which is what ldmadmin watch invokes) was when
it got the segmentation fault?  If you can send me a traceback, I'd
appreciate it.  Or, if you can describe exactly how to reproduce the
problem, that would help.

This may be a bug that depends on when ldmadmin watch is started
relative to when the first product arrives, but that's just
speculation. ...

Thanks for the bug report.
