Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Steam crashed as CSGO started. I'd had Steam open for about an hour I think. I started CSGO. Everything crashed, and I had to restart Steam and CSGO. It crashed while at the "Powered By Source" CSGO intro screen/movie.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

Started Steam
Idled for an hour
Started CSGO
Crash

Here are my dump, log and stdout files:

This looks like the line of interest in the log:
*** Error in `/home/spike/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam': free(): invalid pointer: 0xd9688850 ***

For reference, the attached minidump is a SIGABRT in linux-gate.so.
