[GNOME segmentation fault dialog]

The backtrace would be rather useless because it's all scm_ functions
with no debugging info.  My guess is that the wrapper definitions are
somehow out of date WRT current GNOME.  The the Debian maintainer
says he sent a bug report but I can't find it on bugzilla; the 
original Debian bug report is at 

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?archive=no&bug=69144

It's against an older version but the problem is the same.

BTW, both the libguilegnome / libguilegtk and guile Debian maintainers
listed below work for Gnumatic too, and I'm pretty much in continuous
communication with both of them on irc.gnome.org #gnucash so I can
help with communication if necessary.

Thanks,
