Like for past few years until earlier this year, pan always crashes
fast again (on Slackware64 15+current GNU/Linux).

Pan always says something like this before crashing: (pan:16759):
Gtk-CRITICAL **: 19:23:47.724:
IA__gtk_tree_view_column_set_fixed_width:
assertion 'fixed_width > 0' failed
What version of pan [a]nd do you know or can you check whether
it's built against gtk2 or gtk3?
GTK2 0.149
OK.  At this point, since you don't see a current gtk3 0.151 build, I'd
really suggest building it yourself (against gtk3), since 0.147 started
modernizing with a switched to gmime3, thereby getting quite buggy and
unstable during the modernizing for a few versions (as I've said 0.151
seems to be stable again now, IDR whether 0.150 was yet or not), while
IIRC 0.146 code was so dated I was having problems even getting it to
build (against gtk2 still) without patches toward the end, and when I did
it was buggy.

I avoid/dislike version control systems (VCS): in past tried software 'commits' to fix very minor bugs then 'commits' commonly introduce critical bugs they'd never knowingly allow in a stable version.  Aren't easily-accessible/properly-numbered 0.150 & 0.151 tarballs going to be released on pan.rebelbase.com?
