<p>I closed down bitcoin from the official gui client with <em>File > Exit</em> and the following message appeared in bash:</p>

<pre><code>************************
UNKNOWN EXCEPTION       
bitcoin in CMyApp::OnUnhandledException()
</code></pre>

<p>I've seen this before, and on restarting bitcoin, I encounter no problems, and transactions work just fine. Does anybody know what is causing this error message to show?</p>

<p>I'm running debian squeeze just FYI.</p>

I see several reports of this bug but no solution or analysis. Unfortunately, the error message contains almost no useful information.

This is a bug report and as such very localized in time. Not suitable for this site IMO.
