Bug#656416: vim segfaults when connecting to X server

[Norbert Preining]

Package: vim
Version: 2:7.3.363-1
Severity: important

Since today, I don't know exactely since when, vim stopped working
and segfaults when connecting to the X server. Actually when it started
I was editing another file in vim.

I am speaking about the *terminal* version of vim, but this also
connects to the X servr.

Running vim -X is fine, that works.

Running vim (without -X) segfaults always. I tried all the -U NONE -u NONE
and -u NORC -U NORC -N etc etc as suggested in the bug script.

The backtrace I get is:
Reading symbols from /usr/bin/vim...(no debugging symbols found)...done.
[New LWP 5357]
[New LWP 5358]

warning: Can't read pathname for load map: Input/output error.
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Core was generated by `vim'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

No idea who is the culprit here (my usual suspect is gnome3 ;-)
