I too compiled the latest VLC from git and got segmentation fault. I tried
to remove the cache and configs too, but the problem persists.

I found that Segmentation fault occurs when playing mp3 or mpg, but playing
oggs, mp4, mov etc. gave no such errors.

I ran vlc in debug mode and got:
[0x8c0d810] main audio output warning: PTS is out of range (-5614), dropping
buffer
[0x8c0d810] main audio output warning: PTS is out of range (-31686),
dropping buffer
[0x8c0d810] mpgatofixed32 audio output debug: libmad error: bad
main_data_begin pointer
Segmentation fault

Weird but Backtrace gave;
#0  0xb7f7530e in aout_FiltersPlay () from
/home/rohit/vlc/build/src/.libs/libvlccore.so.3
#1  0x00000000 in ?? ()

But RC3 is working fine and gives no such error.

Regards.
Rohit
