Comment(by alvest):

 Replying to [comment:6 Shew]:

 FreeBSD.

 Your gdb.log showed me that Vidalia depends on a library built with the
 port "net/qt4-network", which in turn uses openssl.  Thanks for that clue.
 I think I may have fixed this problem on FreeBSD (RELENG_8), by adding the
 following line to the port's "Makefile" file and rebuilding that
 (qt4-network) port:

 CONFIGURE_ARGS+= -openssl-linked

 At least after I did that, vidalia ran for me without crashing.  Hope it
 works for you too.
