Bug Description

Binary package hint: mplayer

To reproduce:
1- start gmplayer
2- load a mp3 file
3- press play

4a- try to resize the gui controls smaller, they display all skewed (looks like a fixed-size bitmap is being wrapped around wrong)

4b-try to resize the gui controls larger, it crashes.

Expected result is for the controls to resize without a crash. Sometimes the little triangle in the lower-right won't let me resize it larger, and sometimes it will-- when it does let me resize is when it crashes. This bug might be due to gcc 4.4.1, the guys at #mplayer recommend gcc >=4.4.2. With 'gdb gmplayer', repeating several times produces a different crash each time:

I encounter the same problem. I don't have to load an mp3 to cause the failure, although it fails when I load the mp3 as well.
