bind segfaults on startup/shutdown

[darkrose]

Today I rebooted my server after installing a new kernel (via teknic), and I couldn't get bind to start back up.

Here's the (lackluster) info from the messages log:

Aug 2 11:17:55 server named[765]: starting BIND 9.2.4 -u named
Aug 2 11:17:55 server named[765]: using 1 CPU
Aug 2 11:17:55 server named: named startup failed

This VM is running directadmin on CentOS 3.4, so I tried reinstalling DA to see if that would take care of it. I also removed and reinstalled the installed bind RPMs, that didn't help either.

When I run named -f, it returns:
Segmentation fault

I am in the process of reinstalling yet again, but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas as to why this is happening (and subsequently driving me crazy).

The plot thickens.. Ran an strace, amongst other things, I got:

The jist of it is the following files are not found:

/usr/share/locale/C/libdns.cat
/usr/share/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/libdns.cat
/usr/share/locale/C/libisc.cat
/usr/share/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/libisc.cat
/usr/share/locale/C/libdst.cat
/usr/share/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/libdst.cat
/usr/share/locale/C/libisccc.cat
/usr/share/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/libisccc.cat

I ran a locate on these files and could not find them on my machine. :(

Still working with google. This might be related to a chroot/jail issue they've done in CentOS according to things I've found so far. Any help would be appreciated (before my head starts impacting the monitor)
