Same error again today, mimedefang-multiplexor processes were still
running:

Mar  5 07:18:40 lserver kernel: [558723.844421] mimedefang[32710]:
segfault at a0 ip b7f3a9d0 sp b7580360 error 4 in
libmilter.so.1.0.1[b7f30000+d000]

I installed monit to watch the mimedefang process yesterday, so
mimedefang came up again within a minute. But it's not a good feeling to
use this workaround on productive mailserver. Any other users with the
same problem?
