Comment 77 Matthew Barnes 2008-07-09 19:41:07 UTC 
I /think/ that's just the debugger complaining that it can't find debugging
symbols and/or source code for the strcmp() function.  I don't think that in
itself is a big deal.

The crash is occurring because Evolution is passing a NULL address pointer to
strcmp(), which is fatal.  The interesting data is further down in the stack
trace, showing where we are in the program when this happens.
Comment 79 Matthew Barnes 2008-07-09 20:07:11 UTC 
I've been marking the duplicate attachments as obsolete just to help me keep
things straight (there's a mountain of data here).  "Obsolete" is not really an
accurate term for the way I'm using it.  Consider it to mean "we've seen this
particular crash before and are tracking it elsewhere".

I'd suggest holding off on sending any more crash reports, at least until we
send you some new packages.  Most of the recent reports you've submitted haven't
added any new information to the investigation.

The bug described in bug #454676 is likely already fixed in the more recent
Evolution version included in RHEL 5.2.  If I can isolate the cause, I'll try to
backport a solution for RHEL 4.8.
