I actually got a good clue from the gdb suggestion. Stack trace looks like this (typing on a phone):
e_modapi_save e_gadcon_provider_register e_gadcon_client_visible ecore_idler_del ecore_event_current_event_get ecore_main_loop_iterate ecore_main_loop_begin main Above that is what basically comes down to a trace of freebsd malloc for an impossibly huge block (size 34359738376). Looks like something in e_modapi_save is allocating bad-sized blocks. In any case, that's a good start. I'll do some diagnostics and report what I find.
