The libsmi parser memory faults when parsing mibs/ietf/DOT12-RPTR-MIB. Repeat by running smilint mibs/ietf/DOT12-RPTR-MIB after installing libsmi. This happened to me under RedHat 9 (gcc 3.2.2/x86) and RedHat 7.3 (gcc 2.96/x86).
The parser usually runs off the rails thus:
$ gdb /usr/local/bin/smilint
[stuff omitted]

Running with ElectricFence and EF_PROTECT_BELOW on turns up a problem, if that helps. I can provide details if that would help.
