State-Changed-Why: 
You didn't give us much to go on.  When reporting crashes, you should
come with core dump backtraces, error messages, etc.

With 5.x, it's best you rebuild all of evolution's requirements to make sure
they've all been compiled under the same ABI.  This is best done with
sysutils/portupgrade and the command portupgrade -Rf evolution.  However,
if you still find it's crashing, you can delete the preferences files
under ~/evolution without losing any mail.  Simply save off the 
~/evolution/local directory, delete ~/evolution, then restore the local
directory when you have everything set back up.

Let us know if the recursvie rebuild helps.
