UPDATE: Managed to get my data saved (sneakernet USB keys 2Gigs... DOH!) and
get a clean 7-STABLE system running. K3B worked perfectly for 2 CDs of the
3, but segfaulted while verifying the third. Same thing twice, 98% of the
way through verifying a 354MB CD-R. Looked around for a core file, but
couldn't find any.

I'd say my earlier problems were more likely configuration issues, not FBSD
or K3B issues, but a segfault? Suggestions to try?
