Sadly gdb doesn't seem to find the source file, which does not allow us to get details about the crash. From what I see in the code, we could crash if libhal returns an array without telling us its real size. We could check that the code in libhal is not buggy in that regard, but anyway HAL is now deprecated and I guess we should remove the use of libhal here. Not sure somebody will do that, though.

Anyway, I really don't think disabling udev is a good idea. Granted, shares-admin should not crash in that case, but udev should be fixed not to wake up your drive.
