Ah, I didn't realize it was the same problem seeing that those
stracktraces end up in something called sys_re_search_2 while the one I
posted ended in x_init_image_instance_from_eimage.

Sorry - please let me know if there is something else I can do to help
track this down.

The backtrace I posted was from a debug-build of the Ubuntu hardy
packages, so I would say that rebuilding did not help on my machine.
