Have you tried testing it with fresh config files. I usually try that to see if it fixes any problems.

To not loose your current configs. Either create a temporary new user, log into KDE and bring up akregator or move your .kde* files asside and login again. KDE will then create new config files for you.

Brilliant catch.
I recreated akregatorrc and the crash disappeared.
I can forward the faulty config file to a kde developer if they let me know. I don't suppose akregator should crash on any input.

3.5.2 seems to be fine. When you run into crashes again and you can track it down to either a broken akregatorrc or Archive, file a bug upstream with these files attached. Also make sure your you have built Akregator without -fomit-frame-pointer as follows

USE=debug FEATURES=nostrip emerge akregator

since backtraces without symbol information are not useful.
