I haven't tried that, won't get to it today.  However as a data point
the crash seemed to (mostly? only?) affect VM guests, rather than
physical hosts.  A local rebuild with --disable-fat seemed not to crash,
but I haven't tried a clean rebuild without source change so I'm not
sure if it's the rebuild or the configure option change that fixed
things for me.

Cheers,
Julien
