Things that are "clearly" bugs... you might want to see if they are
already reported.  Something that is very clearly crashing the
frontend or backend or wedging it like this is a bug.  There's not
much question about that.  But before going and just putting a bug
report, doing some due diligence is quite useful to all.  If someone
else has the same bug, you're best off just waiting to see how/when it
gets fixed.  If it's something new, then maybe reporting it here if
you aren't sure it's a bug, etc makes sense.  However, when it's
already been reported both here and on trac...  not much point, is
there?

I could do that, yes.

Anyways, back to the original issue.  This is being looked at, and
your backtrace may be handy while scratching our heads.  We may need
more input as time goes on too.

Anyways, I also need a beer :)
