ekiga crashed with SIGSEGV in g_object_ref() when starting webcam

[Peter Rhone]

Binary package hint: ekiga

it seems to happen when the webcam is being started [Bus 001 Device 002: ID 046d:08ca Logitech, Inc. Mic (Fusion)] when I perform an echo test (<email address hidden>). If I place a call to a land line there is no crash. I haven't tried calling another ekiga user with a webcam.

This is surely fixed with ekiga 4.0.0 or even before.
