I just saw a segfault even though /FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic is set to false. Now I cannot reliably reproduce the crash. Here are my findings:

1. scim-bridge never crashes upon Gnome login in a newly created account.
2. If a scim-bridge process is already running, start a second instance always segfaults.
3. scim-bridge always crashes with configuration left behind by Gutsy in an old account, especifically with /FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic being set to true.
4. Changing /FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic back to false can make the segfaults happen less often.
5. After copying /etc/scim/config to replace the .scim/config (in a virtual console and with Gnome logged out), it seems scim-bridge no longer crashes (restarted Gnome for several times already).
