I'm trying to get a backtrace, but keep getting the above error. If I simply
run mythfrontend from the command line it works no problem (except for the
crash). 

GDB previously worked fine on the same system.

I have definitely compiled with debugging support (I always do)

Any ideas what could cause this?

The only thing I have changed lately is to upgrade to latest CVS and QT3.2
instead of QT3.1
