xmms: *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (out): 0x.... ***

Fix/Answer

run
echo "=media-libs/flac-1.1.2" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
and
emerge media-libs/flac
This should fix the problems.

Description:

This problem is caused by the FLAC input plugin of xmms.
Currently it is broken. Other distributions do not detect this error. The reason for this is that gentoo uses a special glibc with enhanced error detection. This enhancement catches programming bugs in FLAC.
