Yes, plenty. You might want to consider switchinh to $TMPDIR or
/var/tmp in the future, though. That directory is less likely to cause

I just tried this on my other box, and I get a SIGSEGV as well. GDB
shows the point of failure as:

attention to only a subset of the distributions? Can you provide some
insight into how this subsetting logic works?
