Update of bug #23861 (project freeciv):

         Planned Release:                         => 2.5.x, 2.6.0, 3.0.0

Follow-up Comment #12:

> "in scroll_if_necessary()
[../../../../../client/gui-gtk-2.0/chatline.c::561]: assertion 'scroll_target
!= ((void *)0)' failed."

It's hard to see how that would be directly related, but at least it's a clear
error message (and one I've never seen before) to start investigating.
Patch #6458 adds a check against the only case that I can figure out as a
possibility for that error situation to raise, except such a memory/stack
corruption that causes program execution to jump practically randomly.
Then to overall picture could be something like that yet-unknown error (the
main error we would like to get to) causes client to start shutdown, message
buffer gets destroyed as part of that process, and then there's an attempt to
write something to it (possibly the original error message), causing the
chatline assert.
