[Rhythmbox-devel] Core dump in 0.4.99.4

[Matt Adam <matt phlegmatic ca>]

Hey everyone....

I'm having great deals of trouble using the new Rhythmbox (0.4.99.4).  I built/installed it, started it up, pointed it to my music, and everything seemed fine.  It loaded all the thousands of songs I have, and I played a few and everything was ok.

I shut it down, restarted it, and it core dumped after the system tray note appeared, but before any window appeared.  I can't start it now.  The last few lines from debug output are:

and then a core dump.

Is there anything else I can do to help debug this?  I'm using gentoo linux so I'm kind of prepared for screwy rhythmbox behavior from the bad old RB days :)
