Could you try getting the call trace from the core file ? Assuming
the core file is in the current directory, you should do this:

   $ gdb /usr/local/hobbit/server/bin/bb-eventlog.cgi core
   [messages from gdb]
   gdb> bt

The output from the "bt" command would be very helpful in narrowing
down the problem.
Below is the output from gdb
Thanks, that pin-pointed the problem nicely. Your eventlog has an
entry from a host that is not in the bb-hosts file; these are ignored
by the normal eventlog shown on the bb2 page, but the CGI script tried
to include them with fatal consequences.

I've attached a patch to fix this. To apply, save the patch to
/tmp/eventlog-crash.patch, then

  cd hobbit-4.0.1
  patch -p0 </tmp/eventlog-crash.patch
  make
  make install  # as root
