ls segfaults in some directories. I don't know exaclly why it happens, but I found some reason.
$ pwd
/var/abs/local
$ ls
Segmentation fault
$ cd ..
$ ls
PKGBUILD.proto devel kernels network x11
base editors lib office x11-drivers
community extra local system x11-libs
daemons install.proto multimedia unstable
$ cd ..
$ ls
abs cache db ftp local log ntop run spool tmp
backup chroot empty lib lock mail opt service state www
$ cd ..
$ ls
Segmentation fault
$ pwd
/
$ alias ls
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
$ unalias ls
$ ls
bin dev home lib64 mnt proc sbin tmp var
boot etc lib lost+found opt root sys usr
$
As yous see alias ls='ls --color=auto' is the key.

pierre from the german archlinux irc channel told me there was a package called "coreutils-6.5.1-1" which was newer than the one I had...
But I can't find it? Could someone please give me some piece of information where to find it? (it's not on my pacman server (yet??))

Just forgot about what I told you. ;-) This package is only available on Arch64.

Ok, i first did the downgrade, but now there is a new package, which works fine again: "coreutils-6.5-2"
Problem solved.
