Interesting...see below

Snip normal-looking bit of log

This looks like the problem I'm getting when connecting to 64 bit servers from 
my 64 bit Gentoo box (see thread 'Odd nxagent segfault issue'). This is 
unresolved, but Fabian has said it sounds like his February patch to te nx 
libs for 64bit may not be present in the Fedora RPMs. I've not had time to 
check the source RPM yet.
