Hi,
i have seen a crash with ICQ packets - Trying to click on the packet
3 in the following dump causes a crash in vfprintf which results
in X Completely freezing (Mouse events wont be handled until
you kill the gdb) ...

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x4040f466 in vfprintf ()
(gdb) Terminated

>From the backtrace made in a core you wont see any symbols resolving
so i guess it triggers a bug in an external lib (gtk ?)

  ...  The failure can be random; however, when it does occur, it is
