Something is definitely wrong with the stack traces at the launchpad
ticket ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/1038746 ). The
Stacktrace.txt (which is supposed to be just the crashing thread) and
ThreadStacktrace.txt (which is supposed to be all threads) don't match
up--ThreadStacktrace.txt shows only one unimportant thread (as if it was
created at some other time and is preventing creation of a new one?).
We'll need better traces to be able to guess what's wrong. See
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging for more info on debugging with
*buntu, and you may need to talk with some *buntu users to get help
fixing the data-collection mechanism they have.
