Bug 133415

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.4.6 
OS:                Linux

Since about KDE 3.5.2, KMail has started to crash on a regular basis. It is not Kontact, since if I'm reading Usenet with KNode it is stable. If KMail is active however, even if minimised, it will at some point crash. If left open, this will happen several times a day.

Despite compiling with debug, I don't get much from the stack trace (it's included below). The one consistent factor is that it always crashes in the same functions, including nanosleep.

I'm using Gentoo on AMD64, and I've noticed that some other people have the same problem, as shown in these threads:
