It is just as I suspected: Bacula has called gethostbyname, which then seg
faults when in the wins code.  Unless Bacula is passing bad arguments to
gethostbyname, which is highly unlikely, it is not a Bacula bug.

It seems to me that someone has reported this some time ago, so I suspect
it may not be a "Ubuntu" version bug.

Unless someone can show me that Bacula is doing something wrong, I'm
assuming at this point that it as an "upstream" OS or library bug.
