I believe the howto has instructions for how to submit a good bug report
using gdb and sending in a backtrace.

One comment though.  The 'O' browse mode does not change the channel at
all, it just searches through the database showing channel info.  So if
both browse mode and normal channel changing can cause something to freeze
then the problems are possibly unrelated or unrelated to channel changing
at least since browse doesn't actualy change the channel.

Send in a backtrace using the howto instructions and we'll see if someone
can help.
