We had a recent report of a segfault on a Redhat compatible system,
that seemed like it might originate from within its glibc [1].
Although all the versions there didn't match what you have, it's worth
considering as a possibility.
Maybe you can't install debuginfo packages because you don't yet have
the necessary debuginfo repos set up. Just a guess. That is sometimes
a required extra step.
