Thanks Julian.
Lets analyze it:

In your console traces I see the program stopped because SIGUSR1 was 
received. That means a console change and I think the program only stops 
because you are inside gdb and gdb is catching all signals. So the 
question is: If you run the editor without gdb, the console switch works ok?
The traceback from X seems to show what's the problem:

#0  0x40073b67 in TStringCollectionCIntl::freeItem () from /usr/lib/librhtv.so.2.0.3

That's in the internationalization code. Which is coherent with what you 
say about the --no-intl configuration option.
So it looks like something gets broken when no international support is 
available.
As a temporal workaround I suggest you to compile the library using 
international support and call the editor from a script that makes 
something like it:

export LC_ALL=
e

With this you'll disable internationalization at runtime ;-)
I guess you currently have LC_ALL, LANG and/or LANGUAGE variables 
defined as "de". If it isn't the case you can just compile with i18n 
support and use the editor without getting a mix of german and english 
messages ;-)
I'll try to reproduce this problem on my system.
