Yes, the problem appears when this plugin is loaded. It tries to insert
new menus after "Format &Image" which does not exist.
The result is that XAP_Menu_Factory::addNewMenuAfter does not insert
anything and returns 0, but the plugin calls :
pFact->addNewLabel(NULL,newID,mfi[i].label, mfi[i].description);
and :
pActionSet->addAction(myAction);
Following these operations, when EV_UnixMenu::synthesizeMenu is called,
there is no problem for File and Edit menus, but for the View menu, the
menu has no label (the pointer has been changed when the AbiMagick
plugin was loaded) but a dynamic label and then no submenu is created.
Next, the menus which should go in the View menu go to the main menu bar
and at the end of the menu, the menu bar is poped out of the stack which
remains empty. The crash does not occur immediately but...

IMHO, addNewLabel and addAction should not allow the insertion of en
entry with ID==0.

Jean
