Could you please let me know which glib and gtk+2 versions you have?
I'm using glib-2.10.3 and gtk+-2.8.19.

please let me know if beta5 has the same issue
Yes, it still has this issue. Here's the new backtrace - some line numbers are a little different: #0 0xb746afdc in memcpy () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0xb7080638 in byte_stream_putraw (bs=0x86b2886, v=0x0, len=0) at /usr/include/bits/string3.h:51 #2 0xb70a88cb in aim_tlvlist_write (bs=0xbf8c83f8, list=0xbf8c8404) at tlv.c:750 #3 0xb7088495 in aim_im_sendch2_odc_requestdirect (od=0x8517b78, cookie=0x867cdf0 "8933952", sn=0x8687df8 "yds86", ip=0x0, port=5100, requestnumber=1) at family_icbm.c:818 #4 0xb70a69cd in peer_connection_establish_listener_cb (listenerfd=20, data=0x867cde0) at peer.c:617 #5 0xb7824430 in gaim_network_set_upnp_port_mapping_cb (success=0, data=0x8687d28) at network.c:222 #6 0xb7840b31 in do_port_mapping_cb (has_control_mapping=0, data=0x858f3a0) at upnp.c:885 #7 0xb7840de9 in fire_port_mapping_failure_cb (data=0x858f3a0) at upnp.c:892 #8 0xb76ea416 in g_source_get_current_time () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #9 0xb76e9cfc in g_main_context_dispatch () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #10 0xb76ecf7f in g_main_context_check () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #11 0xb76ed327 in g_main_loop_run () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #12 0xb7cfe983 in gtk_main () from /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 #13 0x080ab3dc in main (argc=0, argv=0x0) at gtkmain.c:812
I reported this on Gaim's bug tracker - but they closed it, saying it's a Gentoo bug: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100235&aid=1596652&group_id=235
Well seems that glibc 2.5 defined a function with the same name. The problem will probably disapear if you downgrade to 2.4
Ok, that's what the Gaim developers said, too. I renamed all byte_steam_xxx functions into gaim_byte_stream_xxx. Result: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

So it crashes.
Going to close this as fixed, since the same bug is filed upstream and from what I can tell resolved on their end.
