I may be hitting a manifestation of the same problem.  With a freshly
installed AbiWord (ports tree cvsup'd approximately 1 week after
5.4-RELEASE was announced, portupgrade performed) on a 5.4-RELEASE system,
it crashes whenever the "Open" dialog is opened.  The backtraces are
next to useless, though there does seem to be a number of Pthreads
calls in progress (pthread_mutexattr_init, pthread_testcancel, and
pthread_timedwrlock).

I'm casually debugging this problem as time permits, but to no avail
thus far.
