VLC segfaults with dvb

VLC 0.8.6i segfaults when watching dvb streams. I have attached gdb to the process, and this is the (last of the) output i get:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread 131079 (LWP 26600)] 0xb7c6f3f3 in strlen () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb)

It seems to be the same problem as mentioned here: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=46829

Please bear in mind that I have not had the chance to test this on the nightlies.

I'll attach the full output from vlc and gdb.

GDB dump

Added attachment:

• vlc_gdb_dump.txt

I might add that the last two versions (atleast) are affected by this. (0.8.6h,i)

forgot the backtrace
