Sorry to take so much time responding -I was lagging almost 600 mails
here- but this particular bug is kinda funny so deserves explanation:

What happened to this report is that when Evolution died, Bug Buddy woke
up and then died itself, leading to Bug Buddy sending a report about its
own crash -and forgetting anything about Evolution...

While obviously the symptoms of both bugs are quite different, the
backtrace belongs to bug buddy: My fault not to explain that when
closing the report as duplicate of something apparently too different.

Also thanks for the detailed explanation of the automated Bugzilla
report.
