Comment(by paulelastic):

 [Problem solved] Just a follow-up comment for folks who may be googling
 for the solution to this problem.

 I believe the problem may have something to do with the way the latest gcc
 (4.4.1) handles symbols in the latest ASL. I created a virtual machine
 with Ubuntu 8.10 LTS, and used gcc 4.2.4 to compile the IPOPT source with
 the latest ASL, and it worked like a charm. I copied the compiled binary
 back to my Ubuntu 9.04 machine (gcc 4.4.1) and IPOPT did not segfault
 anymore.

 Bottom line: use an older compiler.
