[Bacula-users] Bacula Director Keeps Crashing, Backtrace looks rather st

Hi List,

our bacula director (Debian Squeeze, squeeze-backports, Version 5.2.6) 
keeps crashing during the nightly backup runs (>400 jobs). I looked at 
the traceback from last nights crash and it looks rather strange:

Here is a small excerpt from the traceback:

I am not exactly sure what happens here, but this pattern repeats for 
roughly 1000 lines. Strange thing is - it always mentions a different 
Job, but always shows the exact same "UPDATE Job..."-Statement. The job 
that is actually referred to in the WHERE clause is also among the jobs 
mentioned. Do you have any idea what causes this beheaviour? Or is it 
expected? We have been running bacula director in foreground mode with 
daemontools to capture the debug output (level 50, which is already 
quite verbose but does not use too much disk i/o while logging). 
However, the crashes also always seem to happen right after a client 
connect:

2013-11-28 01:48:15.607948500 Bacula interrupted by signal 11:

Any hints on what could cause this behaviour? We are really clueless at 
this point... :-/
