Gazebo 1.3 plugin + ROS incompatibility?

edit

After writing some code to pull LIDAR data and induce simple movement control for gazebo-1.2, the update rendered these problematic.

I've re-installed gazebo, drcsim, ros-fuerte, and the boost 1.46 libraries in an attempt to find the problem, but I can still deterministically crash gazebo1.3 by following these steps:

**. /usr/share/drcsim-1.1/setup.sh
roslaunch drc_robot_utils drc_robot.launch
rosrun pr2_teleop teleop_pr2_keyboard**

Pressing a movement key exits gazebo without any thrown errors.

Attaching to the laserScan publisher in Rviz induces an exit with the following error as well:

Exception [MultiRayShape.cc:113] index[0] out of range[0-8742677509569]

Running roswtf gives the following output, but everything seems to be functional and happy in rxgraph.

If anyone has a better idea than me with regards to what might be the problems in communications between ros and Gazebo, or what I could do to find out the problems, I would appreciate them very much.
