Tim, Darrell, All,

  tdelibs is the package that causes the kwrite/kate/etc.. crash when built on
gcc 47. The backtrace is good this time and points to:

at (i=<optimized out>, this=<optimized out>) at /opt/tqt3/include/ntqstring.h:641
641             { return i < d->len ? d->unicode[i] : TQChar::null; }

(full backtrace below)

  This last night/this morning I build gcc 4.6 and gcc 4.7 packages from 5/3 GIT
sources. The test was as follows (removing ksycoca between each):

(1) I installed the gcc 4.6 packages -- no crash occurred.
(2) installed tqt3 built on gcc 4.7 -- no crash occurred.
(3) uninstalled tqt3, reinstalled tqt3 built on gcc 4.6
(4) installed tdelibs built on gcc 4.7 -- kwrite CRASH

** Note: tdelibs built on gcc 4.7 is 9.64 MIB larger than when built on gcc 4.6

  A summary of the test is in the following chart:

            tqt3-46 tdelibs-46 tdebase-46 tqt3-47 tdelibs-47 tdebase-47

tqt3-46        --      OK         OK         ++     CRASH     no test

tdelibs-46     OK      --         OK         OK       ++      no test

tdebase-46     OK      OK         --         OK     CRASH        ++

  I think this should help isolate where the crash is coming from. I will need
to punt to the experts. This backtrace seems to point to the crash in kate/part,
but I don't understand why it is blowing up in tqt3. That's where you experts
will have to figure it out.

  Let me know if you want additional tests. I have my box set up for it now, so
all you have to do it tell me what to run. Let's get this bug squashed and R14
will be the best and most up-to-date release ever!
