Thanks for reporting this.
For those of you who may care, this was sepherke being pipa. =) [ie,
Christina tripping the bug made infamous by Heather. The bug causes
olcd to dump core on the `olc who' request executed during the
person's login.] The immediate cause of the problem is known (it's
caused by the broken state of a knuckle in memory), but the corruption
comes from farther upstream, and I'm working on a fix.
