In regard to: [Networker] Problem with scheduled savegrp -O job, wallace88...:

*** glibc detected *** corrupted double-linked list: 0x08d688a8 ***

looks like some sort of database corruption.  Or it could be a bug.
7.5.3 did not get some of the patches that were developed and included
in 7.5.2.4.

It's a memory issue, and indicates that one of the processes has some kind
of memory allocation issue (it's corrupting its heap, or it's doing a
double free(), or ...).  You can make glibc be a bit more forgiving of
some types of problems by setting MALLOC_CHECK_=0 in the environment,
but ultimately it means that one of the NetWorker components is doing
something it definitely shouldn't be doing.
