[arch-general] pacman segfault problem

Hey alltogether

Unfortunatelly I ran into some really strange pacman problem. While
performing an normal system update, my computer froze (due to some
incorrect overclocking settings). After correcting the settings and
rebooting, I tried to run the Upgrade again, and got this (after
manually removing the lock file):

error: segmentation fault
Internal pacman error: Segmentation fault.
Please submit a full bug report with --debug if appropriate.

Afterwards I ran the pacman with --debug switch. Since the ouptut is
rather long, I have attached it to the end of the mail.

Unfortunatelly, gdb wasn't very helpfull, just showing
0x00007ffff78d8c96 in strcmp () from /lib/libc.so.6

If any one has any idea of how to replace the broken pacman with a new
pacman or of how to fix this issue, I would greatly appreciate to hear
from you.

Thanks in advance

Benedikt
