the gentoo stack was a bit short.
I cleaned debian and now get a similar trace. I had an older version of 
GUI installed (older number shouldn't matter, but it did) so here it is, 
now the code lines do match.

a situation similar to the Gentoo box.
I have this failing on Gentoo, Ubuntu, Solaris 10 however it works on my 
FreeBSD box. The former are all GCC builds, the working one is GCC and 
64bit amd64. But I don't think if this is relevant
