Thanks for the heads up, Detlef. I've applied the patch from #754698 to
pan's git master. As others have suggested, this and other yet-to-be-fixed
crashes are related to the recent C++11 ABI breakage in GCC5
(http://developerblog.redhat.com/2015/02/05/gcc5-and-the-c11-abi/).

So the status is that the pan codebase desperately needs someone with C++
knowledge to go through it and fix it. Volunteers welcome! :)

We could finally get the 0.14O out of the door and try to attract new
contributions, but then again I'm not sure we want to make a release with
half-broken code. What do others think?

Cheers,
pk
