The ncal calendar program crashes with a segmentation fault.

test at s8315043:~$ ncal
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Note that ncal is a symlink to cal and cal is working fine.

test at s8315043:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/cal /usr/bin/ncal
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     4 Feb  7 11:08 /usr/bin/cal -> ncal
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 33888 Feb  7 11:08 /usr/bin/ncal
