This mailing-list would be great. If you feel it's too big, put it on 
a web site and post a URL, or send it to a cvs-committer (for 
instance Florian, sam, myself, Gildas...).

Obviously we need both.

Excellent. So a gdb backtrace would be a great start to debug it. As 
for the technical discussion on the OS X plug-in (on which I have no 
opinion at all, since I am not an OS X developer), it would be better 
in the vlc-devel mailing-list (people here are just users and don't 
give a shit to all that stuff...). Patches and documentation are also 
welcome in vlc-devel.

Happy hunting,
