Tim, Darrell,
As /dev/ammo42 suggested, I captured a strace on the i686 crash. It is
attached to bug 979. (current tdebase and tqt3, tdelibs from 4/16 -- same crash)
http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=568
Also, this bug occurs 100% of the time when pasting 'small' amounts of text
(1-2 words at a time) until the line wraps. I can paste 10 lines of text into
kwrite and keep editing - so it looks like something that effects the single
line length computation.
I'll keep incrementally downgrading and report when I narrow the time the
bug was introduced. If anyone can read straces, then take a look.
