Could those of you on a glibc-using platform please try setting the environment variable MALLOC_CHECK_ to 1 or 2 and running Inkscape?
a value of 1 will print an error message to stderr if malloc is abused
a value of 2 will call abort() -- the latter is more useful in the
debugger probably, so you can see the backtrace
OK, I've fixed two problems highlighted by this check; one in FlowRes.cpp (a buffer overrun whenever doing basically anything with a text object) and one in helper/stock-items.cpp (a bad free(), which appeared when you chose a marker).
I can't find any more, at the moment. Is there any other operation I should try?
