Not that we are aware of.  I suspect that for some reason something is
overwriting a bit of the memory that Xitami is working with, causing it
to get confused and crash like this.  Unfortunately they're very
difficult bugs to track down.

If you do get a chance to try 2.4d9 or 2.5b5 (recently released), I'd
appreciate any comments on whether it is better or worse.  (At least
with those versions I know we've got the source code it was compiled
from safely in our source archive which makes it somewhat easier to
investigate problems.)
