	AMD Athlon64-X2 with 1G RAM
>Description:
	AbiWord compiled from ports on my system (cleanly) does
	not run (even to handle command line flags).
	Compiled with debugging enabled, it stops with the
	single error message:
	DEBUG: SEVIOR: Building menus and toolbars 

	Run under gdb, it shows a SIGSEGV generated by the first
	created thread.  See this gdb stack trace:

    For what it's worth, I've blown away any gnome configurations that
    looked like they belonged to previous versions of abiword (which ran
    fine under FreeBSD-6).

>How-To-Repeat:
	Build (on my system); run.
>Fix:

        Sorry, no idea.  Happy to report any other system
        peculiarities, if that helps.
