 But really you *should* fix the segfault. Either you know why it
happens, in which case you should spot it before it happens and do
something sensible, or you don't know why it happens, in which case it
could be a serious bug in your code.

 Even if you *do* know why it happens, there may be other bugs in your
code that cause segfaults that you *dont* know about, and you'll miss
them because you are stupidly ignoring all segfaults.

 Fix the bugs.
