I've had three crashes today with pre0.9.4. Unfortunately, I can't
consistently repeat them, and I collected no useful information about
them.

One of them occurred after I had done some things in AbiWord, switched
to another Window, and walked away from the computer. When I came back,
AbiWord had crashed with the "This application has performed an illegal
operation ..." message. Something similar happened a few days ago with
one of the older versions (0.9.3 or 0.9.3.1). I forget whether I have
the choice to start a debugger at that point in time. If I do, should
I, and is there some useful information I should try to collect. If the
debugger starts, I can stare at it, but probably not do very much that
is useful -- it will be the VC++6 debugger.

Another occurred when I did a rather simple set of operations in
AbiWord, and repeated when I tried the same set of operations in a new
window created from the same instance of AbiWord. Since I shut down
that instance of AbiWord and started a new instance, I have not been
able to duplicate the crash. (I'll occasionally try again.)
