 Huh... I say this is some gdb bogosity because a) the program clearly isn't
 dying with SIGILL or SIGSEGV; b) gdb crashes when running pavucontrol on
 amd64l and c) the symbol `_ctype_' is actually a char. array rather than a
 function (gdb messed this up too!).
 
 Can you do this:
 
 $ (unset LANGUAGE; export LC_ALL=C; ktrace -di -f /tmp/pav.trace pavucontrol)
 
 Does the title bar say "Volume Control" in English or is it in Spanish?
 
 Can you compress the /tmp/pav.trace file and upload it somewhere?
 
 Do you use a desktop environment, or just a WM?
