sudden death of mozilla firebird + gnome-sound-recorder hang



Hello all,

Since approx two weeks, mainly two applications make enourmous problems:

mozilla-firebird and gnome-sound-recorder.

All this happended just after an apt-get upgrade. I do think that the
reason is to be found in some base libs (gtk or so?). I think i can
exlude defect versions of the named software, because both of them have
been updated since then. Totem also cause problems until yesterday but
it's problems were the same.

Mozilla Firebird issues: application suddenly closes, epsecially upon
opening of new tabs or opended menus (but not always!).
Here a strace of mozilla-firebird:

read(3, "\4\2\2720\2348\10\0\213\0\0\0\355\1@\3\0\0\0\0.\2\257\1"...,
64) = 64
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713185}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713336}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713399}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713447}, NULL) = 0
kill(2581, SIGRTMIN)                    = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713534}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713660}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713690}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713726}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1067289895, 713750}, NULL) = 0
write(2, "pure virtual method called\n", 27) = 27
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ABRT], NULL, 8) = 0
kill(2566, SIGABRT)                     = 0
--- SIGABRT (Aborted) @ 0 (0) ---
unlink("/home/blazko/.phoenix/default/09kafwql.slt/lock") = 0
exit_group(6)                           = ?




GNOME sound recorder is another way: it opens but as soon as i want to
record, the GUI freezes. Here an strace:

ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [64])                = 0
read(3, "\5\1\224\3\275y\6\0\213\0\0\0002\0\0\3\0\0\0\0\264\0H\0"...,
64) = 64
sched_get_priority_max(0)               = 0
sched_get_priority_min(0)               = 0
pipe([16, 17])                          = 0
clone(child_stack=0x81778f8,
flags=CLONE_VM|CLONE_FS|CLONE_FILES|CLONE_SIGHAND) = 2496
write(17, "`\32\247@\5\0\0\0\250b\6\0003\7\0\0\300\335\377\277?q\0"...,
148) = 148
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, NULL, [RTMIN], 8) = 0
write(17, "`\340\211@\0\0\0\0 \337\377\277@f\221@PA\27\10\0\0\0\200"...,
148) = 148
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, NULL, [RTMIN], 8) = 0
rt_sigsuspend([] <unfinished ...>
--- SIGRTMIN (Unknown signal 32) @ 0 (0) ---
<... rt_sigsuspend resumed> )           = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system
call)
sigreturn()                             = ? (mask now [RTMIN])
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, NULL, [RTMIN], 8) = 0
rt_sigsuspend([]
** (gnome-sound-recorder:2497): WARNING **: FIXME: guard from double
entry


Maybe you can tell me a hint? I know that a friend of mine has similar
problems w/ gnome / gtk apps. System is actual (problem resited in GNOME
2.2 and 2.6); maybe i got a problem in configs?
Most other apps do fine further, including galeon and epiphany.
