problems with gworkspace (crash)

[Riccardo]

Hi,

since some time (before release) GWorkspace keeps crasing, it started 
after some of the SVN updates I did some time ago. I should have 
everything up-to-date now. I have tried removed its domain from the 
rpeferences as well as some clenaup of some of the files it keeps in 
the GNUstep dir..

It crashes at startup. I get:

what do you gather from that? I hope it is not a problem with the 
"enhanced" alert panels which allow limited threading. The strange 
thing is that on another computer it works for me.

Thanks,
