Daniel,

I am not aware of any reason the behavior would be different with
MapServer 4.4 and 4.6.  However, with memory corruption issues
(a possibilty) unrelated changes can affect crashing.

Well, it is hard to know from this what version the GDAL is, but it is
certainly recently dated.   You could try upgrading to GDAL 1.3.1
but it is somewhat of a long shot for fixing the problem.
