Unfortunately, the stackdump in your previous report [1] didn't quite 
contain enough information to investigate this problem.  I've made a 
small improvement in how the stackdumps are made [2] since then, so if 
you can upgrade and provide the stackdump file, perhaps we can discover 
why this crash is happening.
