Hi Matthias,

Is this 1.4.12, 1.5.10, or another version? Did you build the
self-test application (`make check`)? If that also fails, and
you're using 1.5.10, trying

./check --init="selftest=no" --validate

will skip the startup tests and hopefully narrow down this failure (if
you're using an earlier version, simply commenting out the call to the
startup selftests in the initializer will have the same effect).
