 This might be the rtld bug triggered by some vlc port options like
 PULSEAUDIO, it was fixed in head and 9-stable and in the 9.1 release
 branch:

  Followup fix affecting openoffice or libreoffice, I forgot which:
 
 	http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=239470
 
  MFCs:
 
 	http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=239439
 	http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=239471
 
  In some cases the crash can be worked around by removing the old
 vlc version (1.3) first before building the new one, but depending
 on the port options chosen even that may not help.
 
  HTH, :)
