Hi,

I could not reproduce the problem but...

It looks like a memory corruption to me. Maybe the configuration is used by one thread while another is about to free() it? Do you think you could run balsa with MALLOC_CHECK_ environment variable set to 2? valgrind output would be even better!

Hi,

With the SVN version I've (very) frequently a segfault when I leave it

This looks like the same bug as in <URL:http://mail.gnome.org/archives/balsa-list/2009-July/msg00025.html>. I see it quite often myself--in gdb, it's always somewhere in malloc, and always results from a corrupt struct malloc_chunk, pointed to by victim.

I've used MALLOC_CHECK_ to try to find the corrupter, and also Valgrind, with no success. However it happens, it's below their respective radar screens.

Best,

Peter
