Bah. After installing this alpha my player went into a Database Rebuild Death Roll: rebuild database, crash player, rebuild database, crash player, lather, rinse, repeat. Backing it up into v3 alpha 3 didn't help either. I had to bring it all the way back to version 2 just to get the player software to boot up enough for me to get into developer mode so I could delete and rebuild the databases. I am tempted to try it again; step it back up to alpha 3 then alpha 5, but I have spent like three hours tonight trying to bring my Empeg back to life tonight. I think I'll wait.

Edit: Ctrl-c does work. Argh. Thanks Mark, that would have saved me a lot of trouble since it would never get to the point where 'q' would have any affect.

Edit2: Well, I am a glutton for punishment and reinstalled alpha 5 anyway, and it appears to work now. I get those allocating_buffer_pool.cpp lines too, but it doesn't appear to affect it. *crosses fingers* I learned a lot tonight, that is for sure.
