Finally had some time to further investigate the cause of the kernel BUG
described in the first post. It turned out that it was only the last
step
of an error chain. The primary error comes from gdresized.pl tripping
over
a flac-file with embedded gif-artwork. This causes the gdresized
process to
exit silently (even if debug options are enabled). In the following the
slimserver.pl process either livelocks, terminates silently or with the
kernel BUG posted in my first post.

My music library (mostly flac) contains about 10% files with embedded
gif artwork, the rest is jpeg. If I disable resizeing for gif by
appropriate patching of GDresizer.pm 7.6.0 (r9301 currently) runs
without any problems.

I made up a little flac testfile (with 30s of copyright free silence)
with
embedded gif artwork. This file (attached) triggers the error reliably
on my squeezebox touch.

As said in my first post, the same files are handled propperly under
7.5.3
with the old GD based code (and also under Windows 7), so this is a
clear problem of the new artwork library.
