If I select text and type ctrl-c (or in menu: edit/copy) abiword crashes immediately.

Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
I re-emerged gtk+-1.2.10-r10 and the problem is gone. I don't know why gtk+ caused the error, but I think this bug can be closed.
I can reproduce the crash when I have "-fomit-frame-pointer" in my CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS. It works well, if I leave it out. This are my flags for a working abiword install (I know, O3 will be overwritten by ebuild): CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=i586 -pipe" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" I suggest to remove "-fomit-frame-pointer" fom FLAGS in ebuild to increase stability.
yeah well, flags beyond standard ones really are the responsibility of the user imho.
what are your CFLAGS on the pc it works fine on ?
CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=athlon-tbird -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
so that one has the -fomit-frame-pointer ? that means compilerspecific and/or m{arch,cpu} specific filtering, i don't feel we should do that. The responsibility on useflags is to some degree to the user.
I've been up all night trying to figure out this same problem. I would have fixed it a week ago had I looked for bugs marked as "won't fix" instead of unresolved or new ones. Your reason for not fixing the ebuild seems a silly one. Why shouldn't we make Gentoo as good as we can? I'm sure there's enough work involved configuring things right. I don't think you have to save problems up for a sunny day just in case getting things up and running starts going too smooth. At least with march=k6-2 OR mcpu=k6-2 OR march=k6 OR march=i586 AND -fomit-frame-pointer Abiword (2.0.6) crashes when trying to copy selected text. All other programs I've emerged have worked fine with -fomit-frame-pointer so I wouldn't call it a troublemaker. The Gentoo install docs also comment on using it so I wouldn't say a K6 or Pentium owner would be going out on a limb adding it to make.conf.
