No crash... I think we can consider the issue resolved.

I'll have a closer look at that for the next full release (I'm already doing 20 things at once this week :P). I'll credit you in the repo commit with your forum credentials if OK?
No problem. :)

Okay, will do, then, if it leads to a commit!

OK. Now building...

Good catch, Dinosaur! I haven't had time to narrow it down myself yet (like you, work...) so I'm glad you made it look so easy :)
