Recompiled gaim as per instructions, installed, ran it alone to be sure:
segfault.

Ran under gdb: no more segfault, works like a charm.

Reran it alone: it works.

Purged, reinstalled "normal" gaim: it works.

I'm a bit puzzled: wonder what happened.

For sake of meticulosity, I resend the output of "gaim -d" in the "good"
case. You'll notice (among other things) that gaim no more complains about
gevolution.so and libzephyr.so being unloadable, although the relevant
libraries are no more present in the system (but of course they were present
while compiling and running the -gdb'ed version of Gaim). But maybe it's
another matter entirely, I just thought it was worthy to mention it.

I don't know what to say. Please, tell me if I there's something more I
should do to solve the mistery. Else, I'm sorry if I made much ado about
nothing.

Cheers,
Gabriele :-)
