I also note this crash as a low-medium priority. I also use the preinit (not franks' init) if that matters. My files have never been on a windows machine, either. To me this this bug smells like one that like be hard to try make happen on an empeg that it wasn't happening on. we (the people expiriencing the crash) should be responsible for providing more info, or better yet, diagnosing it ourselves.
