licq CVS has been very unstable since about February 2002. I usually get 
a segfault every 1 or 2 days, and my friends have the same experience. 
Is it stable for everyone else, or is it just something you don't talk 
about? I know that a CVS release is expected to be buggy, but I consider 
this to be a special case because no stable and working release of licq 
exists atm. Also, these segfaults have been around for many months but 
nobody seems to talk about them.

It runs and works fine, and then it'll suddenly crash for no appearent 
reason. Looking at the patterns over the last few months it seems that 
it's related to someone communicating with me over a direct connection, 
e.g. to check my status or send me a message.
Because it usually takes many hours for this to happen, and it seems 
quite random, I cannot easily reproduce it. So I'd like to know what I 
can do to help diagnose it. strace, gdb, or something else? So far I 
just have a stack trace from the last crash:
