can't reproduce this crash-on-record-stop and already tried a dozen 
times here (opensuse 12.1 32bit and 64bit, kernel 3.1.6 preempt 
threadirqs, jackdmp 1.9.8)

does the backtraces you get always point to the same spot? #1 
qtractorAudioBus::latency_in at qtractorAudioEngine.cpp:2422, which in 
fact is the call to jack_port_get_latency_range() ?

it depends on how new are the build of those calf plugins...

recently the default build changed from using the good old 
lv2_external_ui extension into the troublesome lv2_gtk_ui. you may get 
some different results if you build qtractor with the new lilv stack 
(--enable-lilv) instead of the old slv2 but anyway, embedding a gtk ui 
into a qt host has always been a pita. and it still sucks :(
