Hi,

This was causing me problems too, and since I had a reproducible test
case I attacked the problem with git bisect. The offending commit is
http://git.fluxbox.org/?p=fluxbox.git;a=commitdiff;h=4a7a143713c7febe7d3a7df9c044ed767b8bd3c6

I worked with ak|ra from freenode/#fluxbox to dig into the problem
further. The strace output I got was a little strange -- fluxbox was
in a tight loop suffering SIGFPE, as can be seen from the strace
output [1]. A debug log from the fluxbox binary at this commit didn't
show much useful either [2], nor did a backtrace from the binary as it
was running [3]. However, I created a "rollback" of the above commit,
"fixed" a few problems by deleting code that referenced old variables,
and rebuilt. This seemed to "fix" the problem, but I'm not sure that
what I've done is going to be 100% correct. I've created a patch
against fluxbox master as of commit df2f51b7 anyway [4], in the hopes
that it will get things moving. Hope this helps!
