2.2.6 is so old, it's probable that you're just running into bugs in the 
actual Debug logging statements (e.g. trying to print through NULL pointers, 
etc.). The current stable release is 2.3.32.

I suggest upgrading to the latest 2.2 release at least (2.2.30). If you can 
adapt your code to 2.3 you should do that instead. In the meantime, use a 
malloc debugger like Electric Fence, it may help you isolate the source of 
the problem.
