There is one additional problem, related to a misconfigured panel, which
I observed yesterday. That is that I got a segmentation fault as soon as
I wanted to switch input focus to the main flightgear window. This
happened to me yesterday and the problem was gone as soon as I updated
my cvs base this morning. I tried to find out where the error happened,
but fgfs didn't generate a core file on this particular occasion.
