Hello,
I'm a korean linux user who uses Ubuntu Karmic(kernel-2.6.31-rc2-git7,
developmental X things).

I experienced scim-launcher segfault and errors about scim-bridge for
several weeks till 2 hours ago.
....
Jul 12 10:36:40 localhost kernel: [64910.121353] <6>scim-launcher[1133]:
segfault at 7f63fb27889a ip 00007f63fb27889a sp 00007fffa2535f48 error
14 in socket.so[7f63fb48f000+10000]
....

I tried to build scim-1.4.7 with different compiler(gcc 4.4, 4.3, 4,2,
4.1, 3.4), but the problem wasn't solved.
To the last resort, I tried scim-1.4.9-1 in Debian experimental branch
and the problem disappeared.
Now, my /var/log/syslog contains no messages about scim. and the result
of 'ps aux' is as followis:

brofkims at skylark1:~$ ps aux | grep scim

brofkims 30864 0.0 0.0 30776 1316 ? S 21:44 0:00 scim-bridge

Conclusion: Karmic should include scim-1.4.9 as soon as possible.
