I looked at the 0.7.2ubuntu3 source and I see no indication what have might caused the segfault. I take it from the 7.10beta milestone for now as I have not found any simiar problem yet in launchpad. If the problem happens again, please send another stracktrace in.

Thanks,
 Michael

I mark this as wontfix as I will not have the time to look at the problem in 7.10
