Just an Update. Will post to Ticket #3497 also for info.

So I decided to try building QGIS from trunk and give that a try.  Installed
Qt 4.7.3 and all the other dependancies listed
here on the QGIS Wiki: http://is.gd/AdHLiT

Ended up building the latest version of QGIS in trunk: 1.7.0 (1.7.0-Wroclaw
(15870))

Build went fine.

No problems opening shapefiles, spatiallite, postgis, etc.

However, same issue when changing symbology of a layer.  QGIS hard crashes.

Sometimes it crashes on the first time setting symbology, sometimes on the
3rd or 4th time, but early enough.

This issue is actually a little depressing for me because I love using QGIS,
but with out symbology I do find
it rather limiting.

cheers!
