segmentation fault

[tlacaelel2013]

When I try:

ltrace gcc --version

I get:
~ $ ltrace gcc --version
unexpected breakpoint at 0x5400
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
~ $ ^C
I would like to know the reason and how to fix it because I compiled some programs and I got a similar behavior. This example is provided just as a simplified version of the problem I am trying to solve.
I am developing some apps for iOS based on jor1k. Some of those apps are R-StatsCalc and jor1k-Linux.
Is this segmentation fault due to a memory problem or because that a library that is missing?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
