0x61790000
0xBF0000

Can't say what those numbers *should* look like, but they don't look
like version numbers in the same versioning scheme.

Perhaps a wild pointer smashing things - that is, a problem with
your application.  Have you tried it under valgrind on linux (or
similar tools)?  I note that 0x61790000 is "\0\0ya"; are you working
with any strings that start "ya"?
