Crash Report from Pirut

Description of problem:
Pirut crashes when manually executing Software Updater.  Crash occurs when Software Updater tries to get list of Available Updates.  Tried rebooting server several times, but still crashes everytime Software Updater executes.  This just started happening yesterday.  System has been running, and I have manually done updates successfully for several years.  The "Exception Occurred" message requested filing a bug report.  Crash Dump is attached.
