It seems some crl's or certs trigger a bug in the memory allocation process.
This is what Nat Carlson also ran into. I've reported Nat's bug report,
including the coredump analyses to Andreas.

If you could also get us a coredump read by gdb, this might help the 
process.

Note that Openswan is also a little bit behind on the X509 patches. This
should hopefully be fixed within a few days, now that the code changes
caused by some additional ifdef statements has been removed.
