Do you have any strange malloc(3) flags set?

Works very well with GNOME 2.29.x, x11/nvidia-driver and 8-STABLE (i386)
so far. It was a clean installation.

I didn't use this script, which I use marcusmerge. That way I can use the
unmerge option.

# svn co http://trillian.chruetertee.ch/svn/ports/branches/xorg-dev
# find xorg-dev -name .svn | xargs rm -rf (I can edit in marcusmerge for
..svn later by copy your script)
# sh marcusmerge.sh -m xorg-dev

Cheers,
Mezz

It's in work/dbus-1.2.16/dbus/dbus-memory.c

3. Look for an abort.

There isn't one in that file as far as I can tell:
root(a)kg-v7# pwd
/usr/ports/devel/dbus
root(a)kg-v7# grep abort work/dbus-1.2.16/dbus/dbus-memory.c

Well, it says:
process 36926: arguments to dbus_message_new_signal() were incorrect,
assertion
"_dbus_check_is_valid_path (path)" failed in file dbus-message.c line 1165.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.
D-Bus is not compiled with backtrace support so unable to print a backtrace

I don't know if that message is a red herring or not.
I recompiled dbus with:
make -DWITH_DEBUG all deinstall reinstall

But that didn't help a bit.

Did you restart dbus after that?
