plymouthd crashed with SIGSEGV in ply_list_remove_node()

Binary package hint: plymouth

I installed from today's Natty i386 daily-live CD (dated 20110329, md5sum 76b056698985ee95ab4838d5157e5a70), updated the system, rebooted a couple of times, and was then informed of this error. The system has plymouth/libplymouth2 0.8.2-2ubuntu21. This bug loosely resembles bug 542191 and bug 554510, but in those bugs the crash occurred in different functions (ply_list_remove_all_nodes() in bug 542191, ply_list_get_first_node() in bug 554510, and ply_list_remove_node() in this bug).
