Okay, here's all it gives me. No stack trace or anything.
General Protection Fault at eip-3af9d; flags=3046
eax=00043406 ebx=000100af ecx=00af00a7 edx=0000001c esi=00af00bf
edi=00000000 ebp=0004342c esp=0000227a cs=a7 ds=a7 es=af fs=bf gs=bf
ss=33 error=0000
I don't know if this'll be any help, tho...
