Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon
I've had gnome-settings-daemon crashing intermittently since Maverick, but
after installing Natty I've found a way to crash it reproducibly. Apport does
not produce a complete stacktrace because of bug #793292, so here is the
relevant part of the stack trace:

The bad pointer seems to be supplied at frame #1, elf_dynamic_do_rela(), line
120 in file do-rel.h:
elf_machine_rel (map, r, &symtab[ELFW(R_SYM) (r->r_info)],
&map->l_versions[ndx],
(void *) (l_addr + r->r_offset));
map->l_versions is NULL, and ndx is 6, so the function is passed an invalid
pointer with an address of 6 * sizeof(map->l_versions). Since there is a null
check in the function being called, one possible solution is that the fourth
parameter could be
map->l_versions ? &map->l_versions[ndx] : NULL
but I'm not familiar enough with this code to know if that is the right thing
to do. I'm especially curious about whether it's valid in the first place for
ndx to be nonzero if l_versions is NULL.
Even though the library to be dlopened is libXcursor, the crash
apparently happens while processing the link_map of libsndfile. I've
verified that there is only one libsndfile on my machine, and debsums
indicates that all the files in the libsndfile1 are unaltered, so it
doesn't seem to be due to corruption on my machine.
