 I am the maintainer of security/newpg and also submitted the parts of 
 security/gpgme that allow gpgsm support to be built. I have not been able to 
 reproduce what you are reporting on a FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE or a FreeBSD 
 4.8-STABLE system.
 
 A SIGBUS on that piece of code strongly suggests that the fault lies in the 
 compiler. However, I tried recompiling newpg and gpgme several times, I even 
 tried to recompile a few of the dependencies of newpg (namely libgcrypt, 
 libksba and pth), I even tried installing packages from the package-cluster 
 for libksba, libgcrypt, pth and newpg and then recompiling gpgme - all works 
 fine.
 
 I don't have any suggestions as to debugging this further, however you might 
 want to upgrade to 5.1-RELEASE and install the newpg package and see if that 
 works for you.
