[mythtv] Backend crashing except when under gdb

So, I've been having a problem with my backend crashing a lot.  I'm
trying to get a real backtrace under gdb now, but haven't been able to
get it to get it to crash.  In the logs when it crashes (not under gdb
of course) I see:
*** glibc detected *** /usr/local/bin/mythbackend: corrupted
double-linked list: 0x085c84b8 ***
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib/libc.so.6(+0x6c534)[0xb4bc8534]

[0xb2a05f88]
/usr/local/bin/mythbackend(_ZN7QThread11qt_metacastEPKc+0x0)[0x8057674]

Anyone have any idea where to look?  I've tried recompiling various
dependencies and then recompiling myth, deleted everything myth
related from /usr/local/lib/, but no luck.  I have a feeling this
could entirely be a fault on my system but I'm not sure where to begin
poking.
