I have problems with mail/dspam-devel on amd64 and only if I run it in
daemon mode (stand-alone it doesn't use threads). It doesn't crash, just
spans the threads and stay there. I can say if it's the app or the
system.
  If someone could tell me what tool to use (valgrind works only on i386)
I'd be glad to debug further.

The system is a 5.3-REALEASE and MySQL is 4.1.9 compiled (for now) with
defaults, MyIsam tables (tried inodb but it was way to slow) and had no
mysql problems so far.
