I found that this does happen with locale "nb_NO.UTF-8", but not with
"nb_NO", so this seems to be a problem with UTF-8 handling of strings in
the .po files. The actual string contains Norwegian characters outside
of ASCII table:

format=0xb7fd605f "%i pakker, %i installert, %i delagt. %i skal 
installeres/oppgraderes, %i skal fjernes ; %sB vil bli %s", args=0xbfffee54 "")
    at vasprintf_chk.c:68

The complete stacktrace:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
