Adding some CC's. Not sure if this is a libc issue or gnome-shell issue.

There are other gnome-shell segfaults reported but this appears to be a new one.

Hello

Same problem after installing gnome on my netbook samsung n210 with the classical DVD 32 bits. I had not the problem at the beginning after a fresh install without update. The problem is appeared after doing an urpmi --auto-update.

Valid 3rd build live gnome dvd

Hmmm, I wonder if this is due to the pulseaudio ABI issue.... Let's do a rebuild to find out.
