My experience is that these kind of behaviors are observed when (from 
most to least likeliness):
- Your kernel barfs on a limit, e.g. space/inodes/processes/memory/etc.
- You have a linked library mismatch
- You have bit rot on your system
- You have a faulty linked library
- You have a faulty kernel

The last two are academic for me as I never have seen it in real life, 
but could be possible and the bit rot one only bit me once in the last 
15 years (well I since then use RAID on all but convenience systems).
