Confirming.

Matt:
Thanks for the reduced steps.

I've reproduced the problem here and narrowed it down to the following
sequence with a new xchat profile:

1. Start xchat-gnome .
2. Click the OK button when the XChat-GNOME Setup window appears.
3. Go to Edit -> Preferences.
4. Click on Scripts and Plugins.
5. Tick the Perl checkbox.

Expected result:
Perl checkbox to be ticked.

Actual result:
XChat-GNOME crashes with a Segmentation fault.

Additional information:
No plugin settings seem to be rememered after the crash with if some are ticked before Perl.

Because I have no settings to keep I was able to reset my profile by doing the following:
gconftool --shutdown
find -iname \*xchat\* -exec rm -r {} \;


** Changed in: xchat-gnome (Ubuntu)
       Status: Needs Info => Confirmed
