i forgot to cc the list so here we go in case somebody else finds this
of interest:

this was on my thinkpad t40 with a radeon r250 (mobility firegl 9000)
card using the open source drivers. the program also crashes on my
desktop with an nvidia card using the proprietary nvidia drivers but i
don't know if it's the same problem. i'll investigate more tomorrow.
also, i am using xorg 7.3 from debian. i've been having this problem
for about a month now which is about the time debian switched to xorg
7.3. i wonder if maybe this has something to do with the crash.

not yet. i first wanted to see what other people thought about this.
