       Short version: I tried to fix the calendar display (to start the week on
    Sunday) by upgrading gtk+2. Ended up with a system that was FUBAR when I
    logged in this morning. Reverted gtk+2 to -2.8.12 (from the freerock gnome
    site) and got gnucash working again, but jpilot-0.99.8 just will not load:
    
    [rshepard at salmo ~]$ jpilot
    removing stale pidfile
    *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x0810b2e8 ***
    Aborted
    
       Of course, it's worked flawlessly for me for years, and also with the
    gtk+2-2.8.12 since I upgraded that a month ago. Nothing's changed (as far as
    anything I deliberately did) with glibc-2.3.5.
    
       Tried re-installing jpilot-0.99.8 from Judd's Slackware package. No
    difference. Rebuilt from source (with patches and the SlackBuild script). No
    differences.
    
       Jpilot is one of my mission-critical applications. I've no idea what is
    still the matter since I reverted to versions of everything that worked
    before and even killed and restarted X.
    
       Any ideas or insights appreciated.
