When I go into X I get a gcond process that runs out of control. If I try to install ports that require the gconftool-2 to run the port will fail to install. The error message I see is this gconftool-2 in free(): error: modified (chunk-) pointer. My feeling is that it is not attributed to the switch to the new gcc compiler but I could be wrong. I work in a KDE environment but have gnome there so I can switch to it if I fancy. It is an i386 box running -current cvsupped and built at 1200 MDT 07/20/03. PS I did read gnome's trouble shooting guide but the log file it describes has no useful info.
