[imp] problem viewing messages

After some digging, I found entries in the error_log for the main server
that pop up every time imp dies.  The webmail virtualhost has its own
error_log file so I had been missing them before.  Every time imp dies while
retrieving a message, a couple of these show up:

[Wed Jan 21 23:20:26 2004] [notice] child pid 8652 exit signal Bus error
(10)

The pids change, obviously, but it looks like that particular branch
subthread crashes and burns.  Doesn't leave a core dump but it does crash
and a new thread is launched.

Hope this is a useful clue to someone else because I am quite stumped
myself.

After a fresh compile using what I think is the 2002e c-client.a I get this:

[root at lurch imap-2002e]# echo "<?php phpinfo() ?>" | php | grep -i c-client
<tr><td class="e">IMAP c-Client Version </td><td class="v">4.1 </td></tr>

I know I'm compiling 2002e and I know that there's no other versions of
c-client.a on the system so I wouldn't know where it'd be pulling the old
libraries from.  Looking around I don't see a version of fallback c-client
included in the PHP tarball.  Only thing that I can think of is that
c-client itself reports as 4.1 even though the overall package is 2002e.

Your phpinfo declaring itself as 2002e kind of screws that up, though.
Would you mind checking real quick for me to make sure that this really is
the case?  It still makes sense to me that it could be a minor
incompatibility between Courier's IMAP server and WU's IMAP client -
especially when I know that I've never had version 4.1 on the system and I'm
compiling and installing 2002e.

It almost sounds like you are linking with the wrong libraries.  c-client
libraries post imap-2000 will have a version string of '2000' in phpinfo().
If it's showing anything in the '4.x' region, you are compiling with an old
version of c-client/imap (i think).
