Upon using CTRL-W to close a window, I noticed every
now and then, gaim would crash. Running it under gdb, I
noticed the following:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

IA__g_type_check_instance_cast
(type_instance=0x8bea010, iface_type=135447656)

in gaim-rss-reader.c

Line 172 of gaim-rss-reader.c is
button = GTK_WIDGET(l->data);

and, I haven't snaked through GTK_WIDGET to see how it
eventually gets to g_type_check_instance_cast, but, I
do know that gtype.c is in glib...

I'm curious whether l->data being null would cause this
problem, and I guess the circumstances under which this
would be the case...

Still digging...
