There's a known bug with cleaning out an old help-databse before loading in a new one involving the "shared blocks" in help-scripts. This leads to attempt to free same pointers multiple times; some libraries don't care about this error, some signal immediate segmentation fault because that memory-address could have been reused on the meanwhile. Because ircd isn't multi-threaded this shouldn't happen, and the shared blocks in help-scripts are of questionable value anyway. This will likely be fixed during HelpOps overhaul, however on the meanwhile it won't affect things as long as you don't use HelpOp script shared blocks. Since there's no helpop script sample provided yet, I don't think this is going to be a major problem ;)
