Instead of doing all of that, which is bound to create for you a
long list of troubles, install pan-debuginfo
('debuginfo-install pan' should do it) and run pan under gdb.  If
there will still some "debuginfo" stuff missing for the task then
gdb will show you command(s) needed to complete this.

If you are running a 64-bit system then check if
http://lwn.net/Articles/414467/ and
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=638477
will not give you any clues for what you are observing.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=638477#c38
describes a cheap workaround so before doing anything above you may
want to check if this does not change what you observe.  If yes then
something has a memcpy() bug and this nicely narrows your search
field.
