As I've told before, this isn't Alarm Clock's fault.

Why? Because this is written in Python and from Python side I can't even
manage memory to crash like this. There is a bug in Python binding to
some library in new Ubuntu (I know because it crashes for me too).

The only way to manage memory is to use Python's garbage collector which
won't cause crash like this.

/var/lib/python-support/python2.6/gtk-2.0/gtk/_gtk.so[0x7f6fbf7218e0]

This line tells that it's because of broken GTK binding for Python in
Ubuntu 8.10. If Python code can crash C library it's not the Python
application's bug but security issue in Python or Python binding for
some library - Python is only a scripting language just like perl or
php.

It seems like a bug in PyGTK. As I said, it crashes right after starting
the thread system.
