Package: rxvt-unicode
Version: 9.09-3
Severity: normal

As follows:
=================================
$ gdb urxvt 2>/dev/null | tee trace
Reading symbols from /usr/bin/urxvt...(no debugging symbols found)...done.
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/urxvt 
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb79a973f in Perl_pp_require () from /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.10
(gdb) bt
#0  0xb79a973f in Perl_pp_require () from /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.10
#1  0xb79083d2 in Perl_call_sv () from /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.10
Backtrace stopped: previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)
(gdb) quit
=================================

Including my X resources since perl seems to be involved:
=================================

=================================
although removing the *.perl* options from the X resources doesn't help..

This started happening in the last couple days. I haven't upgraded rxvt recently
but here's a log of the upgrades I have done:
