Hopefully will fix your case. It is strange that I tried with pv and all goes fine on my computers. The problem was not allocating char pointer structures, but just chars. The error message from libc was a bit misleading, though...
i tried also with my regular config.cfg and it worked too after the fix. loading pv module alone didn't cause the problem. it was a combination of modules and the crash occurred usually during parsing of the config file.
these kind of problems are time consuming to analyze. hopefully we don't get hit by another one any time soon.
