Nope, no crashes since the upgrade. Granted, your code change could have
fixed it as well, or it could have been a little of both. I do notice,
however, that goom seems to sync up with the music a lot better now as
well. I also had a problem where a piece of an effect would get "stuck" on
the screen and various random flashes would start appearing after it (goom)
was running for more than 10 minutes or so. This also appears to have been
fixed with the latest release (or the flags, or both).
Now if I could only figure out why 48 pt font is so small in 640x480 :-)

Just to see if it would make a difference, I changed the flags for the
entire mythtv (and plugins) compile to include not only "-march=pentium3"
(since I have one), but to also use the "-msse -mfpmath=sse" flags. In
addition to the the crashes going away, everything seemed to respond a
lot better and overall CPU usage dropped a bit too. If more people have
similar results, it might be worthwhile to change the configure script to
add these flags on supported systems.
So goom no longer crashes for you in full screen mode with these flags?
Hmm, interesting... If you search back there are some messages from me and
a few others where we figured out where goom was crashing, but not why. I
would be suprised if it turned out to be a simple compiler flags issue
though...
Oh well
