The 1.2.1 is rather old and not supported.  Even in 1.2.x branch 
there are at least several fixes of various segmentation faults.  
It doesn't really make any sense to try to debug anything further, 
even traditional "please recompile without 3rd party modules to 
see if it helps" doesn't really apply here.  

Upgrade to at least 1.4.3 (1.5.6 preferred) and come back if 
you'll see any problems there.

See here for recent versions of nginx available for download, 
including precompiled linux packages:
