@JB: Do you still know what you were doing at this time? Perhaps you
were using the "Manage Drives and Media" tool in System -> Admin at that
time? It seems you tried to modify a partition which no longer existed,
did you perhaps remove the USB stick in the middle of the operation?

Notes to myself: Crashes in src/partutil.c:

        } else if (scheme == PART_TYPE_MSDOS || scheme == 
PART_TYPE_MSDOS_EXTENDED) {
                struct {
                        unsigned char   system;
                        int             boot;
                        /* more stuff */
                } *dos_data = (void *) part->disk_specific;

                if (type != NULL) {
                        dos_data->system = mbr_part_type;

                        ^ here; dos_data is NULL, i. e.
part->disk_specific was NULL.

However, neither udev nor dk-disks actually know about /dev/sdb. The
kernel detected it twice, though.
