I've been doing the strace trick ever since it broke (I know it worked fine in FC2). What would make gringotts reliably fail (segfault) when run directly, but reliably succeed when run under strace? Some sort of race condition? I've done a great many builds of gringotts and its libs, using different combinations of compiler switches, but they all segfault eventually. Gringotts looks like a fine secure container for those who don't need a whole encrypted filesystem. There don't seem to be any work-alikes in Fedora, so I'd be very pleased if it started working properly again. Cheers Steffen.
