Hi,
I just upgraded to kam 3.2.0 and my config started crashed. I did some
bisecting, until I came to commit 5cd87175faa97161023c37e2cc0f0c06
(core, srdb1, modules/db_*, modules_k/db_*: Added support for
configuring SQL buffer size and mediumblob/mediumtext in MySQL) which
seems to be the culprit.
It seems that this commit broke things that were earlier possible. My
existing configuration loads 'permissions' module before the
'db_postgres' module. This used to work perfectly well: the SQL modules
were usable after loading without requiring initialization.
After this commit, this causes segmentation fault with following backtrace:

This is because db_do_query gets called (from permissions module when it
checks table version) before the database module was initialized (and
thus, db_query_init was not yet called).
Now, I'm not sure if the previous behaviour is to be required. But at
least we should not crash if the module ordering is not right.
Peter, please fix the code to either work as before, or give proper
error message and exit (instead of crashing).
Thanks,
Timo
