Comment 1 Snark 2009-12-19 07:20:54 UTC 
Could you describe what you were doing when it crashed? It looks like a gtk+ crash...
Comment 2 Peter Robinson 2009-12-27 00:00:11 UTC 
1. Start ekiga, go to edit | preferences => sound events
2. Select Play sound on incoming calls. Try to press Play (for testing sound),
however chrash happens also if you have not fiddled with Play
3. Uncheck or check sound playing => immediate crash (setting is toggled for
next time)
Comment 3 Eugen Dedu 2010-01-11 22:52:10 UTC 
gclosure.c is in glib, it seems to me it's a bug in glib.  Reassigning to glib...

Offending line (285):
      i = closure->n_guards;

^^ this line of code is exected millions of times a day (given that a machine running gnome executed it thousands of times a day, and given that gnome is running on thousands of computers a day).

My best guess would be corrupted memory…

Peter, did this happen only once, or is it reproducable for you?

Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided after more
than 6 weeks. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you can provide the
information asked for.

Thanks!

It's a pitty nothing has been figured out here. Meanwhile, there's a reproducible crash in glib2

  closure_invoke_notifiers (notify_type=3, closure=0x0) at gclosure.c:284

affecting Claws Mail on Fedora 15 and 16 (x86_64).

Is it the same one?
