Thanks for the tip. I've put the stack trace below:

Core was generated by `mutt'.

Unfortunately, it didn't change anything for mutt.

My LANG environment variable was set to fr_FR.UTF-8.
Without any LANG stuff, mutt runs fine.

X11 applications crash with a different call sequence. I'll try to recompile
all relevant packages and libraries with -g and post again when I'm done.
