Package: slrn
Version: 0.9.8.1pl2~cvs20060816-2
Severity: serious
Justification: segfault

The version in experimental reproducibly dies when selecting special
articles in the article pager. Running in gdb does not give much output
unfortunately:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb7ce1203 in strlen () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
(gdb) bt
#0  0xb7ce1203 in strlen () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6
#1  0x0807e454 in ?? ()

One article that _always_ kills slrn is news.gmane.org, group
"gmane.org.operators.nanog", article #43204 (MsgID
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "Experiences with DDoS
platforms..." by "Fergie"). Happens several times to me per day.

Thanks for the experimental release though, finally a slrn with good UTF-8
support.
