ibus-pinyin will crash by a assert fail when typing in high disk io load situation

[PSWZ-ZhangY]

If I'm doing something occupying a lot of the disk, and then I type something, it will crash.

For example, I started a virtualbox virtual machine, and I start to install a system to it using a iso file.
Then I switch to firefox and focus on a input box, then I switch to ibus-pinyin input method, and type something.
It will not crash just when I start to type, but it will crash soon after I've input 3~4 characters.
And I've noticed that the ibus framework will not crash, apport tells me that ibus-engine-pinyin crashes.

ibus-pinyin made my system freeze completely except the mouse could move around the screen.
I have the latest Lubuntu and tried ibus-pinyin because I couldn't get fcitx to display more than 5 characters at a time.

Are you guys still using Ubuntu 10.04?

IBus stuff included in Ubuntu 10.04 is way too old.
Would you use PPA to upgrade ibus-pinyin to a more recent version?

This version has expired some times ago, and no backport is expected as there is no 'security' reported problem
