Can you please try if rebuilding the package with new toolchain fixes it? If not please provide a gdb backtrace with disassemble output.

Hi Andreas,

well, in the meanwhile I did a last upgrade (with this I got a new kernel and a new gnutls). Now it starts fine. I really don't know how that all should have to with each other. It's strange. Maybe it hasn't to do with the last update and it was the reboot... I don't know.

Seems so that this "bug" could be closed or at least lowered in severity. Sorry for the noise.
