Ahh you are correct, my binary + source did not match

Here is the stack trace from the (correct) binary (it's still crashing)
  ---- called from signal handler with signal 11 (SIGSEGV) ------
  [9] main(argc = 4, argv = 0x8046b28), line 678 in "hobbitd_channel.c"
Thanks, the line number isn't quite right, but I think this patch should fix
it. However, it should only happen if the worker process (hobbitd_alert,
hobbitd_rrd, hobbitd_history) cannot keep up with the flow of incoming
messages, so there might be a different problem with your setup that
triggers this. That would also explain why you see it regularly, and others
do not.

Anyway, let me know if this patch stops it from crashing.
