There is, you have to hack the spec so that you define the macro which
runs the spec-helper strip script to null so nothing is done.
And it seems to me that you get this segfault on startup? I cannot
reproduce it ... can you backup your .gaimrc and .gaim/ and do it from scratch
to see how you can reliably reproduce this problem?
