If I try to add a file, the application crashes.  Running from the command
line gives me this output:

These errors appear when the program is launched:

I just uploaded the package to build the debugging package. It is predicted it 
will
be build in two (amd64) of four (i386) hours.

The debug package is build on Launchpad. Please install it and reproduce the 
crash.
Attach the new stacktrace (now containing a lot more infomation) to this 
bugreport.

If the bug has disappeared, we also like to know.

From the forum 
http://www.biggmatt.com/forums/index.php?topic=525.msg1661#msg1661

on Kubuntu 9.10 this happens as well but I found if you go into system settings 
>
Appearance > GTK+Appearance and change the Widget Style from QTCurve to Raleigh 
it no
longer crashes. you can then change back to QTCurve so Firefox doesn't look 
ugly.

AND

Also, if you want a selection install all available gtk+ themes from synaptic 
and you
can choose a look that fits better with your kde theme. all gtk+ themes I tried
worked fine, the only one that seems to crash winff is QTCurve

It really seems like this bug is caused by a broken QTcurve library.

The file that causes this bug seems to be:
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libqtcurve.so which in Ubuntu comes from the 
package
gtk2-engines-qtcurve and in OpenSUSE from the qtcurve-gtk2 package.

The bug seems to be fixed in at least version 0.69.1 of that library.

There was some buggy code in Winff which is fixed in the source tree. Also 
lazarus
(the builder) contained some bugs. Future Winff builds will be using a patched 
or
fixed lazarus.
