I had this problem and sent a bug report....the answer was to
fill in the new Part Message option...it seems it doesn't like it being
empty, so it'll crash whenever you leave a channel. Once you fill that,
it stops crashing...tho...I still went back to 1.5.7, because I'm seeing
some weird memory happenings, and it all started when I upgraded to 1.5.8
and started using a new gtk theme...since I built the theme, I decided to
downgrade xchat to a known-not-to-leak-memory version and see if the
problem was my theme or xchat....and so far, I suspect 1.5.8....but I've
only tested it for a few hours.
