The released 1.7.4.

Any way, I'm not the only with the problem on FreeBSD and we narrowed
it down to evas-core:
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?50D83078.2020203

I didn't do a real debugging session (I didn't build with debugging
symbols), but I also posted a summary of the startup procedure with
all the signals gdb trapped:
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?50D7BDCF.4040401

It goes into "PAUSE !" mode after segfaulting. The issue can be redeemed
by building evas-core with gcc 4.2 instead of clang 3.1. I cannot tell
whether that is a problem in evas-core or clang. I might try it with
clang 3.2 later.
