As a general rule, if yoiu encounter a problem in the pre-releases,
it's definitely worth reporting it.  There are hundreds of different
configurations out there, and the core developers only have access
to a tiny fraction of these.  If we don't know about a problem, then it's
fairly unlikely that it'll be fixed!

Can you try running the agent under a debugger, and trying to
force the crash   The backtrace from that would be more useful in
trying to determine what's going wrong.
