Bug#342215: kmail crashes very oftenly on SPARC (other KDE apps crash too, but not so often)

[Christopher Martin <chrsmrtn@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Can you confirm that the crashes you reported still afflict the latest 
KDE 3.5.3? It's been seven months since the report, and we've had no 
other reports of KMail crashes on sparc since.

Thanks,
Christopher Martin
