GnuCash 1.8.1 Crash

Hmm.  Well, do you feel confident about running gnucash under gdb?
You would need to:

        gnucash-env gdb /usr/bin/guile
        ...
        gdb> run -e main -s /usr/libexec/overrides/gnucash

And then, perhaps, set a breakpoint in either exit() or _exit()
and let it run to completion.  Then get a gdb "backtrace"...

Thanks,
