VM Crashes

To join in again, my regression tests still seem to fail loading.
So it looks like a similar effect as what sven experiences!

List,

    I hope you realize I'm motivated to investigate VM crashes.
Esteban reports that the VM is now more stable w.r.t. becomeForward:
after I debugged load cases a couple of week ago.  But I could do with
some help.  It really helps to be provided with an image that
reproduces the bug in start-up.  e.g. evaluating a doit that saves and
then invokes crashing code:

      Smalltalk saveAs: 'crash'.
      Gofer it
              url: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository';
              package: 'ConfigurationOfFFI';
              load.
        (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfFFI) project stableVersion load.

This saves me a lot of time.  I have a day job that does not pay me to
investigate Cog crashes.  Your help is most appreciated.

best,

Your too.
Yes getting reproducible cases is a key aspect.
Esteban and Igor spent some days checking for this and other problems (that nicolas experienced on his servers).
