ouch!

Does it seg fault as well with one of the MapServer demos, for instance 
the one at http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/download/current/demo5x/ ?

If the demo mapfile above seg faults as well then that would indicate a 
problem with the Debian build or some conflict of libs on your box... 
very little we can do about this, you'd have to report the issue to the 
package maintainers. You could consider using prebuilt binaries from FGS 
(http://maptools.org/fgs/) or build completely from source (much more work).

If the demo doesn't seg fault, then it could be something in your 
ekby.map that triggers a bug in the parser or something like that. In 
this case if you could create a ticket in Trac and attach your mapfile 
we could try to reproduce the crash on a dev box.
