This trace doesn't make sense - the "bbh_item()" function isn't called
from the "load_hostnames()" function. So I think there's some corruption
of the stack involved.

Either that, or the binary you're running doesn't match the source code
you have (ie. your source files were not used to compile the binary that
is running).

If you load the binary and core into gdb as you did to get the stack
trace, could you then do this:
   gdb> fr 10
This should print out that you're now at stackframe #10, which is the
"load_hostnames" routine.
   gdb> p *inbuf
   gdb> p name
   gdb> p title
These print out the value of a number of variables.
   gdb> fr 9
   gdb> p *hostin
