Hi Kaare,

I fixed the crash in WeeChat git, here is the link with commit:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=weechat.git;a=commitdiff;h=68025527874d2d98d4d9f85ddea84db577307743

(link to bug: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?36479)

Kolter confirmed me this patch is ok. If you want to test, you can try
either 0.3.8-dev (0.3.8 will be released on beginning of June) or
patch 0.3.7 (this patch should apply fine on 0.3.7).
And then of course enable load of guile plugin to check if the crash
does not occur.
