the most critical one is:
"start a script-fu plug-in noninteractively, and things start burning".
start burning means: either script-fu segfaults, gimp segfaults, both
segfault, perl gets an error but gimp runs unstable etc...
There are probbaly two bugs here: the first one cuases script-fu to return
garbage, and the second one (in gimp) allows gimp to become unstable
because script-fu returned garbage.

It is so painful because I re-reported it at least three times (so many
mails are in my saent-folder, but I know I sent more that got lost during
a crash).

They are ciritcal enough that some plug-ins (like the logulator) never
worked because of it.

Yes, I am. Otherwise you would need to think that I'm such an asshole
_all_ the time. Beware ;)

I actually sent a report and how to reproduce it to this list 7 days ago.

Fine. My experience is 15 months old and is documented in at least the
gimp-developers mailinglist.
Sure, Sven is a nice and fast hacker, but even he can't get me to report
the same problem for the 6th time or so.
