I'll test test this patch with my config.... I hesitate to take the 
-lpthread directly into Makefile.am. It should be part of the 
@BOOST_THREADS_LIB@ flags already?

Could you please post the complete statck dump (all 24 frames). This 
gives the call chain that might help to spot the error. The first frame 
'_ZN9zeitgeist4Core11CatchSignalEi+0xc' points to the 
Core::CoreCatchSignal function that produces this dump. More 
interesinting is of course what part of the server crashed...

the rosimporter is still too experimental and not that useful. I would 
not include it into an release announcement.

maybe point out that wxWidgets is optional and only required to use rsgedit.

these utilities are wxWidgets specific classes that are not part of its 
default distribution. They are just in tree copies and are not 
development by us.
