Just for kicks I just did a complete rebuild and re-install (clearing
out the directories beforehand).  I also checked and I am up-to-date
with CVS as of a couple minutes ago.

However, I still crash.  This is on RedHat 6.2, guile 1.3, g-wrap 1.1.9.
I'm compiling with --disable-guppi --enable-sql.

Here is the backtrace when I hit the 'import' button:

Any hints how I can help you debug this?
