backtrace and memory map

I'm trying to use claws-mail behind a HTTP proxy, so I compiled httppc's `proxed' script sources from http://httppc.sourceforge.net/. When trying it with claws-mail, I manage to get DNS responses for the IMAP servers hostnames, but right after that, I get a SIGABRT every time (see Backtrace and Memory Map attached).
I still haven't taken a look at it so I don't know which one of proxed or claws-mail received the SIGABRT or a SIGSEGV, but I'm willing to make gdb sing if someone is interested.
I'm also willing to write a section on the wiki about how to set httppc for claws-mail once this issue is solved.


Further info:
OS: Linux Fedora 15 2.6.40.6-0.fc15.i686.PAE (Virtual Machine running in a Windows XP host)
Claws Mail version 3.7.9

Console output at crash time:

*** glibc detected *** claws-mail: free(): invalid pointer: 0x08a22848 ***

zsh: abort      proxed claws-mail

Problem fixed, it was a libraries configuration problem.
I'll write the section in the wiki.
