That's a very strange calling sequence.
It looks like the debug info isn't enough because you didn't get source 
file and line number information. But at least you got the function names.
The CLY_YieldProcessor() call (calling usleep and nanosleep) looks like 
the "idle" loop when the library is waiting for input.
The strange part is that it seems to be called from execDialog() ... I 
tried to reproduce such an interruption and I got "TSetEditorApp::idle" 
there. So I think you are mixing binaries. The TV calls seems to be OK, 
but the functions inside the editor doesn't have much sense.
Please double check you are running a copy with debug info. Also check 
that all the editor was recompiled when you selected the debug info. 
This traceback is showing "execDialog" for two addresses quite different.
The other strange thing is that this traceback is too small, doesn't 
look like a traceback of the editor loading the desktop file.
