Heh.  I wish I could tell you.  Before testing the patch I tried to
reproduce the crash, just to make sure I could actually tell it was gone
afterwards.  Turns out I can't reproduce it anymore, because WordPress
(where I originally encountered the crash, reliably) seem to have
changed something in their web interface, and I can't reproduce the
crash anymore.  I haven't installed any upgrades since I reported the
bug, so my system's behavior should still be the same.  Murphy's Law, I
guess. :)

Testing out your patch at least didn't make anything worse.  But I'm
going back to the original version right now to wait and see if I can
discover some other way to reproduce the crash.

Maybe you have an idea of how I could reproduce it, based on the gdb
trace I sent?

Best,

Jan
