I'm getting segfaults in Pidgin that seem to be coming from silc, but I'm unable to get a backtrace although I recompiled both pidgin and silc-toolkit with the debug USE flag enabled: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0xb6c06b7b in silc_ske_set_keys () from /usr/lib/silc-toolkit/libsilc-1.1.so.2 (gdb) bt full #0 0xb6c06b7b in silc_ske_set_keys () from /usr/lib/silc-toolkit/libsilc-1.1.so.2 No symbol table info available. #1 0x00000000 in ??

That's not what USE=debug does. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml
