[Qt-creator] Creator segmentation faults becoming common...

I like to work with the bleeding edge yet released version of Qt and Creator
to help identify bugs.  However, for the last few days, Creator has become
extremely unstable, crashing so frequently its not usable.

Scanning the lists, crashing doesn't appear widely reported so I was
wondering if its to do with my systems.  I use Ubuntu 9.04 on multiple
desktops and see the same crashes so, the current creator / qt master is
definitely bad on ubuntu systems. (if I were using one machine, it might be
something machine specific, but the desktops are virgin Ubuntu).

Thinking it might be a small bug, I pulled and rebuilt last night... same
segmentation fault behavior.

Has there been a shift away from "master" being ready for testing?

Hopefully, the questionable practice of "pushing" from the "inside" repo to
gitorious isn't being used for Creator as it is for Qt (can't imagine why
that policy exists other than CVS / SVN hangover... git branches and direct
repo access are a much better approach)

Looks like Emacs for the time being but this is the first time Creator has
become unusuable for a sustained period.
