We have also package for debug version of pwlib, can you install the package at
http://www.saillard.org/ekiga/ubuntu-feisty-x86/libpt-dbg_1.10.7-0.feisty0_i386.deb

With the debug package, we can have the line number of the source

Then before launching ekiga:
# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/
# ulimit -c unlimited
# ekiga
# ...
# gdb /usr/bin/ekiga core
(gdb) thread apply all bt
