See my post yesterday.  I posted patches for maui's configure and
makefiles that should resolve your issues.

Can you get an strace of pbs_server during the hangs?  See what it is
blocking on?

Yes, we've found and fixed more memory corruption and crash bugs in
2.1.1.

Then dig into the client code and fix your segfault :)
