Looks similar to the stack traces in bug 319864 and bug 333599, which were with evo 2.4.x. Makes me think that this stack trace might possibly be slightly corrupted (missing some frames) since there's no calls between the signal handler and recurrence_page_get_type(). Can you get us a stack trace with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so.
This has been in evolution-2.6.2. Fix committed on 2006-04-24.
