gtkicq woes

[Daniel Burrows <Daniel_Burrows brown edu>]

  Well, I finally got gtkicq to compile on my machine--now that gnome-core
installs gnome-panel.h, the only modification needed was to change an occurance
of applet_widget_init_defaults() to applet_widget_init() (note: I can imagine
that this might not be the Right Way to solve the problem, since I'm not an
expert on the applet stuff).  However, it now segfaults immediately after
being loaded and generally manages to take the panel down with it.  Wuen I run
it in gdb I get:

(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/local/gnome/bin/gtkicq 
Unable to connect to server port 35091
This generally means that the program could not talk to the esound server

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

  saved_state = 191 '¿',

    x = -730, y = -16385, width = 0, height = 0}, window = 0xbffffd42, 
  parent = 0xbffffd5e}

  (My panel stays alive at this point, even after I kill the process and quit
   gdb)

  Does anyone know what could be wrong?  I've attached the single-line change
I made to the source to get the stuff to compile to this message.
