OK, so I started to wonder why e16 would segv every time I tried
to open the 'About Enlightenment' to check the build date I was actually
running...
Turns out that sometimes, the 'sound' resource isn't set. And this
eventually lead to a crash trying to strcpy from a null pointer down in
SclassFind. I'm going to bet that a lot of people never see this because
they get saved by the !Conf_sound.enable check just before
(This patch *also* fixed a number of other mysterious crashes when e16 tried
to put up a dialog box..)
