If you were truly paranoid you would be physically disconnecting yourself from the network rather than using the terminal to shutdown the interface, after all did you personally write the nm-manager?or the terminal commands? I think you aren't as paranoid as you are giving yourself credit for being : ) So to be clear it is segfaulting when using the terminal commands? I would test my hardware, maybe throw in another NIC and see if it still does that or not. Have a look through the logs, maybe this will offer up some clues.
