Can you tell us what you were doing when the crash happened? Were you
running a stylesheet? If so, is it heavily recursive? If that's the case,
you may want to try increasing the allocated stack size of the XSLT
processor in Tools|Options|PluginSettings|XSLT Settings

I work with recursive stylesheets. I'm not sure that I would characterize them as heavily recursive, but I will try your recommendation.
This crashing of the application occurs frequently. Hopefully increasing the stack size will help. (Perhaps dynamic allocation of stack space would be an improvement?)

Robert, my suggestion only applies if the crashes you get are at processing
time.
Looking at your log again, it looks like you are getting two categories of
crashes; we are aware about one, and we haven't been able to reproduce/fix
it yet (it is hopefully work-arounded in the upcoming BL69m build); the
other one doesn't contain any usable information, and it could might be
related to a memory issue.

Hm... not sure that's doable; stack dimension is an attribute of a thread
(and of a process); I've never seen any documentation describing resizing
of stack size once the process or thread is initialized. If you have a
pointer to such information, I would be happy to read it.

We didn't forget about you; we tried hard reproducing the behavior in
different configurations, with no success. The .log file, unfortunately,
doesn't point in any direction.
Just a few other questions:
- do you have other open documents when the crash happens (other than the
XSLT and the XML used to preview the XSLT)?
- do you have a project open?
- does the crash happen deterministically or almost deterministically
(like more than 5 times out of 10)?
