I installed 0.6 from ISO, then updated pacman. After this, I tried to update whole system:

[root@ankh vrok]# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
current [################] 100% 37K 6.4K/s 00:00:05
extra [################] 100% 142K 8.4K/s 00:00:16
:: xorg conflicts with ttf-bitstream-vera. Remove ttf-bitstream-vera? [Y/n] Y
Segmentation fault
[root@ankh vrok]# pacman -Q pacman
pacman 2.8-1

I've solved the problem by removing manually old XFree86 and dependencies. This situation hasn't happened any more. If you want reproduce it, I suggest to make a fresh installation of 0.6, update pacman and then rest of system.
This task depends upon
