This probably has to do with a combination of using modules and irssi's not cleaning up
entirely properly.

use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Cookies;

It's probably one of these causing the core dump.
I had the same problem when I put the line "use Storable;" in a script. As soon as that module
was used, irssi would segfault on quit.

From your trace I see it crashes in scripts_deinit which indicates the same thing I had.
So, patch irssi, or live with it :)
