clicking on full screen should open up full-screen mode.

instead it crashes (looks like a segfault) - no message, just crashes.
I've identified what stops it from crashing; the problem occurs if a window is maximized and then I try to maximize vlcplayer. If i minimize the windows and then full-screen vlc it works fine, no problems. just an fyi.

This should already be fixed in VLC 1.0.4 and later.
