Apparently this does not crash under Arch64, according to Varun:

./pacman -S aterm
resolving dependencies... done.
looking for inter-conflicts... done.

Targets: aterm-1.0.0-2

Total Package Size: 0.1 MB

Proceed with upgrade? [Y/n] y


:: Retrieving packages from current...
aterm-1.0.0-2 73K 13.5K/s 00:00:05 [#######################] 100%
checking package integrity... done.
checking for file conflicts (1/1) [#######################] 100%
(1/1) installing aterm [#######################] 100%

So, no segfault for me. :)
