Hi Jon,
glad to view an answer !
Just for your information, since I posted, I did some others tests, and I
can reproduce it with k3b (which use qt4) but NOT with kcalc (which use
qt5).
Then I tried some little python tests from Envisage for qt5 and wasn't able
to reproduce this crash.

So I guess there's something wrong with qt4.

Tomorrow I'll try your snapshot to confirm or not your fix !

Thanks for your time.
