More than likely, defining uses in your app controller (which
generally speaking, is a bad idea anyway) is triggering an error, the
error process creates a new controller which triggers the same error
again ad infinitum - seg fault.

Some other kind of error loop.

You can probably now draw a conclusion as to why given ^^ and ^^^^.

Your app controller is in principle an abstract class, what are you
trying to put in it?
