This causes vbnc to not display it's logo (it displays a single string
'version' in a blank area), this can be seen on monobuild (mono-basic, during
build, all architectures that doesn't crash, for instance:
http://mono.ximian.com/monobuild/builds/HEAD/sles-9-x86_64/mono-basic/90677/logs/build.log)

On some architectures it looks like it causes crashes (sles-9-ppc,
macos-10-ppc, debian-4-sparc).
