Ok, so I updated libproxy0 to the latest version
(0.3.1-6/stable,testing,unstable) and the bug is gone !
Currently the vlc-nox package depends on libproxy0 >= 0.2.3
Maybe should it be updated to depend on libproxy0 >= 0.3.1 ?

I am not familiar with libproxy internals. Due to the swarm of crash reports,
I have made VLC 2.1 execute /usr/bin/proxy from proxy-tools in a separate
process instead of calling libproxy directly. (This also weakens the run-time
dependency on libproxy.) At least, VLC will not crash anymore.
Given the maturity consideration of libproxy, this seems reasonable.
Thanks for this!
Also, reading bug
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=604934 makes me feel
sad and wonder, if there was some way to disable the usage of libproxy
in vlc altogether?
For VLC 2.0, either `./configure --disable-libproxy' or build-time conflict with
libproxy-dev ought to do. Then the plain old $http_proxy will be used.
That makes sense to me. Benjamin, I suggest to do so in both Debian
and Ubuntu. What do you think?
