I think the problem is more complex.

First, I noticed that it crashes for more programs I often use (like 
terminal from xfce).
Second, it crashes also under XP SP2.

But, surprisingly, it doesn't crash on each Windows machine I tried that 
on (certainly it crashes on freshly installed 2000/XP machines).

Weird.
So the problem may be hard to isolate.
