If you want things to be fixed, you'll have to tell it to the right 
people. By coincidence I noticed this mail, but I would appreciate it if 
you mailed me. I would have told you you were the first one to report it. 

In this case I would have asked you to forward it to the Pine developers 
as they may have some tips for getting the root-cause of the problem. (BTW 
it does not crash here)

It may also be relevant to tell exactly when it crashes or other 
information like what package is working for you now. You can also include 
me in the bugreport, I have a buildlog available that may help them to 
understand what's different from their build.

Most likely the binary you're using now was not build on Fedora Core 3 and 
one of the libraries or maybe the compiler is the cause of it crashing on 
your system. Using another package may work for you, but it will not get 
anything fixed.
