batch mode crashes / segfaults / bus errors

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. devise some settings
2. save a job file
3. attempt to run using photivo -j today.prj    on commandline

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected wonderful photos. Got segfault:

zsh, basalt  5:52PM 20120709/ % photivo -j today.ptj
Photivo version 2012-07-07 (rev a038f21c7828)+
Existing settingsfile '/home/piglet/.photivo/photivo.ini'
User directory: '/home/piglet/.photivo/'; 
Share directory: '/usr/share/photivo/'; 
Initializing/Updating user profile...
Lensfun database: '/home/piglet/.photivo/LensfunDatabase'; 
Progress : Loading channelmixers
Progress : Ready

and at this point it pops up a `Photivo crashed' dialog pointing me at flickr.
When I continue, the terminal shows either a segfault or a bus error and 
photivo quits.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Photivo version 2012-07-07 (rev a038f21c7828)+

Arch Linux (64-bit), very uptodate.

Please provide any additional information below.

I have a second installation deep in /usr/local/, built by hand from hg 
sources; if I run this with gdb, I see:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00000000004e040f in ptFilterDM::InsertToList(ptFilterDM::TListType,

#7  0x000000000042cbd6 in main ()
(gdb) 

but it's beyond my ability to take that any further.
