Segmentation fault when running hostapd

I'm really confused as to why this is happening.

I'm running my own compiled kernel and hostap modules on a testing 
debian system
Linux vpn 2.4.25 #2 Wed Apr 28 05:10:46 PDT 2004 ppc GNU/Linux

hostap-source to build the modules is Version: 1:0.1.3-1
with the same version number for hostapd.

I rebuilt the debian hostapd package to not strip debugging symbols and 
the following is what I get

(gdb) run -B /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
Starting program: /home/cwevans/hostapd-0.1.3/hostapd -B 
/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
Opening raw packet socket for ifindex 7
Using interface wlan0ap with hwaddr 00:09:5b:67:84:60 and ssid 'SAE'
wlan0: RADIUS Authentication server [ip address of radius server]:1812

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
