I don't know whether this particular crash has been fixed - but perhaps we'll
never know, since the original report is all the information we have.
I believe all the subsequent mails to this bug report can be attributed to
#574697 (which we already fixed).

Sam, have you had any similar crashes with squeeze or later? If not, I think
we can assume it has been fixed at some point, and close this bug.

This is #574697, which was fixed in 1.2.24-1. I don't think Sam's crash
is necessarily the same thing.

I think this is also #574697. As Brad noted, the offset is consistently
14a000 for everyone except Sam who reported crashes under this bug report.
