Subject: kmail crashes very oftenly on SPARC (other KDE apps crash too,
 but not so often)

Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.4.2-2
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss

Since I upgraded KDE to 3.4.x, I'm getting unpleasant crashes on various KDE applications
but the most serious, because of the frecuency in which it happens is kmail.

The worst part is that, as kmail is compiled without debuging symbols, I can't debug
much on what's happening, and all I have are the signals with which it dies (4 "Illegal
Instruction", and 11 "Invalid memory reference").

*** KMail got signal 11 (Crashing)
KCrash: Application 'kmail' crashing...

And this doesn't happen when doing something especifically. For example, if I type to fast
when composing, it sometimes crashes. Also I got crashes when configuring kmail or filters.

Just a moment ago konsole died with no reason, and I wasn't even doing anything with it.

KCrash: Application 'konsole' crashing...

This is very annoying.
