Please, keep the mailing list in CC. I'm re-sending your attachments so the 
won't get lost.
And use bottom posting if possible.

It's ok now, but it would have been easier if you copy/pasted the backtrace to 
a text file and attached it.

It looks like the error occurs somewhere in the variable editor. Maybe that 
helps finding steps to reproduce the bug.
There are already a few bugs related to the variable editor that are tracked on 
savannah [1]. Maybe it is one of those...
