ps -axl during textdumps occasionally segfaults with a HUGE ps.core

All the info I happen to have:

(from core.txt.X)
"ps -axl

Segmentation fault (core dumped)"

The last core I got (/ps.core) was 1076211712 bytes (1026 MiB).

Anyone else with this problem?
Unfortunately, I deleted the most recent core and so can't gdb it, at  
least not right now. I did try it on the first one, but got a very  
broken backtrace.

Regards,
Thomas
