Jason Bradley Nance: your problem has actually not much todo with the one 'Nuno Alexandre' has because your's is the result of an grsecurity option you enable in your kernel.
I have the same problem (with 5.2.1-r2 on AMD_64) observed by Jason Bradley Nance, and AFAIK I am not running a grsecurity kernel (I am still running the kernel from the 2004.3-r1 installation CD).

this bug has nothing to do with help2man segfaulting, stop posting about it
I experience the same as in comment #4 -- perl segfaults when running help2man
I've created a bugreport for help2man with reference to posts in this bug... However the initial report made in this bug (77440) has nothing to do with help2man as stated earlier. Please direct further comments about help2man to: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79478 It's not strictly a help2man problem, because perl is not supposed to segfault under any circustances...

To work around this probem I disabled gettext from loading in the man/ subdir. Adding the following to the src_unpack() works around this. sed -i -e s/'have_gettext = 1'/'have_gettext = 0'/g man/help2man
This should be fixed now for ia64/amd64 users by a perl update Locale-gettext.
Solar mentions this should be fixed now, no comments in the last 45 days or thereabouts. I just pinged him on IRC and we're both of the opinion it needs to be closed and marked FIXED - please reopen if there is any further difficulty.
