Segmentation Fault(s) b/c of logs

[Darq]

hi i'm getting segfaults when i run either
eqlauncher world zone

on amd64

thing is, if the logs dir doesn't exist
i get
./zone
Failed to open log file: logs/eqemu_debug_zone.log
[Debug] [RULES__CHANGE] Resetting running rules to default values
[Debug] [ZONE__INIT] Loading server configuration..
Unable to load 'eqemu_config.xml': Failed to open file
[Debug] [ZONE__INIT_ERR] Loading server configuration failed.

if i mkdir logs
./zone
Segmentation fault

same with eqlaunch and world

./eqlaunch
Failed to open log file: logs/eqemu_debug_3823.log
[Debug] [LAUNCHER__ERROR] You must specfify a launcher name as the first argument to this program.

./world
Failed to open log file: logs/eqemu_debug_world.log
[Debug] [RULES__CHANGE] Resetting running rules to default values
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT] Loading server configuration..
Unable to load 'eqemu_config.xml': Failed to open file
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT_ERR] Loading server configuration failed.

however if i rm -R logs
things start working
the filesystem is lvm2->jfs

and for now those programs are ran as root
