Unfortunately, no.

In fact, X crashed most recently while I wasn't
using it, so I'm unaware of anything in particular
to focus on.

However, I agree in principle with narrowing down
the cause of the crash.

Can X be coaxed to elicit more verbose diagnostics,
like a stack trace, for example?

Thanks,
Kingsley
