Based on the two backtraces below, it is clear that it is those nasty
GNU rx memory bugs biting again. Unfortunately, nobody has ever
volunteered to fix the GNU rx code for us, and those who have looked
have reported that it's pretty messy. In the next version, we'll be
switching back to GNU regex, which should be much more stable. In the
meantime, there was already a patch floating around that replaced rx
with regex; I'll try to find a copy and send it to you. Thomas, maybe
this would be a reasonable candidate for 0.95.2?
