[gentoo-amd64] Crossover Games demo install on Gentoo AMD64

[Mark Knecht]

I'm wondering what causes this gtk warning message when installing
Crossover Games? It's just a warning and as far as I can tell it
hasn't caused a problem I can identify. The Crossover Games app starts
up and I'll try loading some games.

Thanks,
Mark

I did a bit of research on this the last time it came up.  It's a crash 
catcher library, taking a trace and allowing users to send in a bug 
report if desired, all wrapped up in a nice GUI presentation.  It isn't 
required and won't affect normal operation.

IOW, don't worry about it unless you have enough crashes to justify 
installing the crash interceptor, since that's its only function.
