No, I had no crashes but I did not test it very intensivly. It works as it is but I did not test different environments. First I wanted to see how much interest there is in it.

For XFDOS, since it is a Live-CD, I start cwsdpmi with the -r -s switches. The -s switch puts the cwsdpmi swap file onto a RAM disk. Otherwise it would not work, since cwsdpmi cannot write to the CD of cause.

You can try something similar on your system to avoid crashes. Maybe there are problems writing the swap file to a disk emulation. Depending on the format you used for that.
