modxslt-parse / libapache2-modxslt crashed with SIGSEGV in xmlSetGlobalState()

[kc]

modxslt-parse, but also the modxslt module for apache2 crashes with a segmentation fault on every .xml-file I care to hand it, including the examples distributed with the package. Using another command line xslt transformer, like xsltproc, works without problem. (Unfortunately, this doe snot help me with apache.)

Before my update to ubuntu karmic, everything was fine.

Because my website uses modxslt for all of its pages, this is a serious problem, users only see blank pages.

Same case and same segfault here with a 686 machine (32bit) upgraded from jaunty to karmik. No web page using mod-xslt is displayable.
We can see these lines in apache error log :
[Tue Nov 03 16:47:36 2009] [notice] child pid 14488 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

No news about this bug ? I can't upgrade because of this issue.
Thanks...
