I had this exact same problem with the 0.9beta19 RPM from CCRMA.  I
could add a plug-in to the track, but the whole thing would crash as
soon as I tried to 'edit' it--meaning when I right-clicked on the
plug-in name and selected 'edit'.  This was with RH9 with the
low-latency patch.

When I removed the RPM and built from source, the problem went away.

Honestly, I have had much better results with building from source than
with the RPMs from CCRMA--and I've tried both on several versions.
