Bug 139605

I have installed the default GNOME selection, autologged to a GNOME session and called "pstree -a". It segfaulted. Without -a it is fine. pstree -c 2626 is also fine.
It seems the bug is locale dependent:

linux:~ # LANG=C pstree -a 2626
nautilus --no-default-window --sm-client-id default2
  |-{nautilus}
  |-{nautilus}
  |-{nautilus}
  `-{nautilus}
linux:~ # LANG=C pstree -U -a 2626
nautilus --no-default-window --sm-client-id default2
  ├─{nautilus}
  ├─{nautilus}
  ├─{nautilus}
  └─{nautilus}
linux:~ # echo $LANG
cs_CZ.UTF-8
linux:~ # pstree -a 2626
nautilus --no-default-window --sm-client-id default2
  ├─{nautilus}
Neoprávněný přístup do paměti (SIGSEGV)
linux:~ # LANG=en_US.UTF-8 pstree -a 2626

So here with a GDB trace:

(BTW I don't understand why I have to explicitly say symbol-file. BTW^2, is valgrind not able to use debuginfo packages?)
