Ouch - I see.
Well I ran our very old gdb 
(gdb hobbitd_client ../tmp/core )

it says stopped at  line 1497

for (argi = 1; (argi < argc); argi++) {
Hmm - that doesn't really make sense. I can see that's from the
very beginning of the program when it goes through the commandline
arguments; this cannot be the location where it crashes after
running for a while.

So either your gdb is broken, or the hobbitd_client binary doesn't match
the source files you've got.

The gdb backtrace ("bt" command) still would help, because it would at
least give me the call-chain of where it crashes. I'm perfectly happy
with just the names of the program-functions and the linenumbers; you
can edit out all of the private data-strings.
