I've checked this now, I replaced the former xforms 0.88 with xforms 0.89
for glibc 2.1 (which is what I have).
The preferences dialog itself works, except when I switch to the printers
view, it dumps core then.
This is the backtrace, seems like a bug in xforms though:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
