mark,

i'm starting to suspect that there was/is some sort of conflict with the
php/libs that you already had on your system in the partitions that you
didn't touch....

anyway.. glad to hear that you're up/running..

Quick update: I've "fixed" the problem, but unfortunately my fix was to
do a clean install again, this time formatting all the partitions
except /home (previously, I didn't format my old /var partition). Right
now, I'm in the process of restoring my old databases from backup and
re-entering the privileges. So far, so good - no more Seg faults, and
all my mysql_queries work fine.

BTW, for those who are interested, I did open a bug-ticket with RedHat:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160691 . Maybe
there's an easier fix, but I couldn't wait for it. Moral of the story?
Maybe it's just always bite the bullet, and do a clean install when
upgrading :)
