There hasn't been a libkse on my system in a very long time.  Just to
make sure, I have searched the whole computer and it was not found. 
Also, I have done the libmap.conf of libc_r:

libc_r.so.5                    libpthread.so.1
libc_r.so                      libpthread.so.1

I can now claim that I am no_one without a doubt.  I got the same
failures as before.

With regards to gnome-specific or if KDE has the same issue, I cannot
answer.  I do not use KDE.  It would appear to be gnome-specific
(gtk-specific?).  Emacs has never given me any problems, but neither has
nautilus, the panel, or a number of other gnome applications.

For the moment, I highly suspect this is a pthread/readline interaction
causing the crashes.

Please let me know what I can do to help here.
