When the game-engine is closed the second time, Blender crashes. gdb reports:

Checking for installed Python... got it!

Apparently python 2.4 is the problem. If I use the official build compiled 
with python 2.5 from http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender-64-bits/, 
the program runs fine. (blender-2.44-linux-glibc236-py25-x86_64.tar.bz2)

--- How to reproduce: ---
Start Blender
press p for the game engine
press esc to quit the game engine (so far everything is fine)
press p again for the game engine
press esc to quit the game engine --> crash
