Opera browser broken by latest etch upgrade

[Mark Zimmerman <markz@frii.net>]

Greetings:

After doing an 'aptitude upgrade' this morning (which brought a
boatload of X changes), I can no longer use opera due to a
segmentation fault upon startup. The problem seems to be related to
the QT library; here is some gdb output:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread -1232304448 (LWP 3466)]
0x08072130 in QWidget::setGeometry ()
(gdb) where
#0  0x08072130 in QWidget::setGeometry ()
#1  0x08076205 in QWidget::setGeometry ()
#2  0x08613576 in QStrList::~QStrList ()
#3  0x086f60e3 in XAllocColor ()
... and many more lines.

I tried installing opera-static but it fails as well.

Can anyone else confirm this behavior or suggest a workaround?
