[IRCServices Coding] Bug Report for Services 5.0 alpha 12

[Todd Punderson]

Hello,
	I've been playing with the alpha version on a very small irc
server I run. I ran into this problem after doing:
nickserv forbid q
nickserv forbid w
nickserv forbid x
operserv update
...segfaults

After the segfault, the lock file is left in the database directory, the
nick.db is 0 bytes and nick.db.save exists as the version before the
forbids. I can reproduce this error over and over... This also happened
in version alpha 11. I have included a chunk of the services.log entry
and the gdb output. If you need any more information, I'll try to
accommodate. I read through everything I could find and it didn't look
like anyone reported this yet, so hopefully this will help! BTW, this
isn't a complaint, just a report. :)
Thanks!
Todd
