I have just spent two days wrestling with a consistent crash on
FM11.0.1.382. It appears to be linked to editing master pages, but I
haven't been able to narrow it down precisely. It *may* be associated
with DITA-FMx (Scott is looking into that), but FM crashed frequently
when just saving or closing this particular file - that is, no DITA-FMx
activity at the time.
And it is not just one file. I was able to reproduce it using files
created from scratch. Tweak the master page, save, close, reopen, and
tweak again. Eventually the file gets to a point where you cannot make
the slightest change (change one dimension of a text frame, for heaven's
sake) on the master page without FM crashing either on saving/closing or
when generating a book using DITA-FMx.
It may be a DITA-FMx problem or it may be a native FM problem. We've
reproduced it on two machines, both with DITA-FMx installed. Interesting
that the OP mentioned master page changes in his process...
Incidentally, it is not the slightly friendly "FrameMaker has
encountered a serious problem and must quit" message. It's the Windows
"FrameMaker has stopped working, rrrrrsssppp" variety. Though this
morning I also had the friendly form occur once when saving the file. Go
figure.
Time was when FrameMaker just worked. Now when problems occur I don't
know whether it's FrameMaker, DITA-FMx, or me. (If it's me, it's also my
colleague!)

Make sure you install the update to FM11.0.1.382
The original release was quite crash prone. Crashes are rare in this
update (as has been mentioned on this list by many).
