Funny thing ... I followed the instructions for running valgrind, but the crash
does not occur when valgrind is in use!

The crash is easily reproducible. When jack starts and the CD in the drive is
not in the CDDB database, jack asks if it should continue. It happens
consistently after answering yes to that question. I have not tried ripping a
CD that would be in the database; I suspect that jack would crash then, too.

I should remind you that switching back to Python 2.4 caused the problem to go
away.
