That didn't cause thousands of errors, only a handful - it wasn't being 
used much. The only thing I can think if that could have produced that 
may alignment errors (and segfaults to go with them, as it happens) was 
what I was doing with dietlibc.

I don't really see how. As I said, dietlibc is long uninstalled and the 
boot-up still trips this 24+1 times. I think the coreutils bug was a 
separate one. Now I just need to find what is causing the remaining few 
alignment issues.
