Bug 139961

Version:           Self compiled from SVN of 12.01.2007 of 3.4-branch (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc 4.1 
OS:                Linux

Sometimes KDevelop-3.4-RC2 (from SVN as of 12.01.2007) crashes during start, when KDevelop has to reload a project.

The rpoject load was nearly finished, when the crash occured, so that only a few plugins had to be initialized. The core-dump indicates to me, that some init work of KFileTreeBranch::parentKFTVItem() is not robust against some problems (e.g. file tree can't be configured identically to last session, as a directory is missing now or something like that).

Strange:
If I restart KDevelop immediately again, it loads the same project correctly again.

==>>
Maybe there is a very special race-condition, that is not properly handled somewhere around  KFileTreeBranch::parentKFTVItem().

###
My system is an update Kubuntu Edgy (10/2006) with KDE 3.5.5 and KDevelop compiled from SVN.
I have nearly all plugins activated (NOT: doxygen, package).
I do NOT know, how to reproduce this crash in an easy way - so I hope that the code of the listed functions provides enough information on possible race conditions.

Hope this helps, to find a safer race condition guard,
