I looked into this a bit this morning.  It is not an old bug come back. 
Looks like probably classic double delete badness with interaction
between our horrible LLLinkedList class and some changes to move things
to LLPointer (our reference counting pointer implementation).  Brian has
taken this on since it looks related to code he has recently worked on.

If anyone submits a patch that removes ALL uses of LLLinkedList (or any
other home-brewed container class in our code) in favor of a std::
equivelant I will personally work to get it into the release code as
fast as possible.  This is a non-trivial task though.
