First of all, http://bugs.archlinux.org is not the right place for this crash. 
It's written and packaged outside the official Arch Linux project.
The splash screen does not seem to have a dedicated website or bug tracker, so 
I'd suggest to mail the author directly, and attach the backtrace with more 
details (so kdemod3-kdelibs-debug provides that).
If it turns out to be a packaging problem, you should contact the kdemod guys.
