nedit on Ubuntu 8.04 crashing

This is a fairly recent problem using NEdit on Ubuntu 8.04.

1. In a terminal window if I run "nedit" or "ncl" (not specifying a file 
name) and then use File/Open then NEdit crashes immediately with a 
Segmentation fault. The same thing happens if I use either "Save" or 
Save As".

2. 1. In a terminal window if I run "nedit" or "ncl" (not specifying a 
file name) and then use File/Previous and pick a file, then NEdit works 
correctly.  But then it crashes if I use File/Save As. But it does not 
crash if I use "Save".

3. In a terminal window if I run "nedit" or "ncl" specifying an existing 
file modify it then use File/Save As then NEdit crashes immediately. But 
it does not crash if I use "Save".

Any hints?

Here is what nedit -V gives:
   UTF8 locale not supported.
