Description of problem:

I see similar reports in #472121, #472941, #473073, #473081.

However I add one more, when the box is configured as nis client I get
crashes everywhere. The system is simply broken, can't be used.

yum is giving me segv. fault

Here is a backtrace from starting thunderbird:
