anyone have the slightest clue what this means?
commenting out     do_sjoin(source, ac, av);  under the "void m_sjoin"
section of the protocol's .c file causes the segfaulting to stop (but that
obviously causes chanserv to stop detecting users joining the channel),
meaning its got something to do with that? the protocol file worked
perfectly on version 5.0.23.
I also noted how it only causes problems on registered channels that have
had a topic set on them.. joining other registered channels doesnt cause the
segfault.

It probably has something to do with the change from
set_topic(c, topic, u->nick, now);
to
set_topic(s_ChanServ, c, topic, u->nick, now);
under
static void do_cstopic(User *u)    in modules/chanserv/main.c,
because when i commented that out, it stopped the segfaults, but obviously
didnt set the topics, even when KEEPTOPIC was enabled.

Help would be great.
