Bug#421880: icedove: Odd error message on console

As a FYI, when I run strace -f icedove, it looks for "core" after a chdir to my home directory, and in that vicinity, it is also opening md5sum. chdir("/export/big/gpk")= 0 ...141000 lines... [pid 13028] stat64("/usr/bin/md5sum", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=22116, ...}) = 0
