Do you have any "dns" or "dig" tests in your bb-hosts file ? Hobbit will
use ARES for those, even though you did add the --no-ares option.

Running "bbcmd bbtest-net --debug" will give some more clue about what
it does when it crashes. Just the last screenful of output.

I think you hit <enter> in response to the 
   What group-ID does your webserver use ?
question during ./configure. Check the Makefile and see what the
"HTTPDGID" setting is.

I have another report that an upgrade of the C-ARES library fixed 
crashes in bbtest-net. So that is what I'd like you to try next:

* Grab the file http://www.hswn.dk/~henrik/c-ares-cvs.20060621.tar.gz
  and save it in the bbnet/ directory in your Hobbit source tree. 
* Do an "rm -rf bbnet/c-ares/; make clean"
* Change build/Makefile.rules - the line with 
    ARESVER = 1.2.1
  should be
    ARESVER = cvs.20060621
* Rebuild with "make; make install"
