cheese crashed with SIGSEGV in free()

[Sasa Paporovic]

Cheese is able to start a video recording, but the video picture got frozen immediatelly.

Stopping recording of the video triggers no further action in cheese. The video keeps frozen on the first picture of the recording.

The video could not be saved in any way.

In the webcam folder /home/user/video/webcam/ is only a open video stream of .webm format.

Steps to reproduce:
1.Start cheese
2.Choose the video recording mode.
3.Start recording of the video
4.See the video freez imdediatelly
5.Stop recording after a while
6.See that cheese is not able to do any further actions. Also saving is not possible.
7.Open your filebrowser and lokk into /home/user/video/webcam
    and see the still open video stream in .webm format with 0 bytes.
