Here is something I found by accident...

If I run my app, then close it, then save/exit the image, then open the image again, edit my application class to add a new instance variable, then save the change – Pow! – I get about a dozen debugger pop-ups saying "#wait was sent to nil".

What this tells me (and you may correct me if I'm wrong), the VM still has a thread running that is sending #wait messages to my application which has already shutdown. This can't be good, but whether this is related to the segmentation fault is anybody's guess at this point.

Thanks for reporting.
I hope that in Pharo 70 we will get rid of the FreeType pluging.
