Ah, OK thanks.

I just recognized, that when I now try to download waypoints from the GPS, QLGT 
crashes too.
Looking at what is there, I recognized, I still had the empty MyWaypoints.gpx 
file around.
Removing that file, I was able again to download the waypoints.

I can recompile qt with debug symbols if you like to get a meaningful backtrace.

cheers,
Sebastian
