#443 Gabber crashes (segfaults) at startup; for some users only
[this bug might be related to 502208]
Launching gabber resulted in the following error:
gabber 0.8.7.12
gtkspell: Spell command printed on stderr -- probably
failed.
gtkspell: Spell command printed on stderr -- probably
failed.
Neither ispell nor aspell could run, spell-checking
disabled
zsh: abort (core dumped) gabber
But strangely enough, the problem did not occur for all
users on the computer.
I think my core dumps won't help other people :(
Core was generated by `gabber'.
Program terminated with signal 6, Aborted.

Actually, my problem was due to corrupted (?) messages
in spool. Indeed, the error occured in
judo::ElementStream::push(char const*, int)

Since I have deleted .Gabber-spool, gabber now just
works fine.

Yes, this is a known bug with the Gabber spool. Thanks.
