OK. Let's forget about the "export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES"
trick for now.

I've been trying to brainstorm what could cause the "LibreOffice crashes sooner
and sooner" behavior that you describe. I now see a "crashed on child side of
fork pre-exec" line in your recent crash logs so maybe the gpg command is
crashing and the crash is bubbling up to LibreOffice.

I did some online searching and gpg (GPGTools in my case) launches a background
process called "gpg-agent" that stays running even after LibreOffice quits or
crashes.

So, when LibreOffice crashes (either 24.2 or the nightly build), can you kill
the gpg-agent background process before you relaunch LibreOffice using the
following steps? Does that make LibreOffice run longer before crashing?:

1. Open a Terminal window and execute the following command:
     ps -ef | grep gpg-agent | grep -- --homedir

2. The output should look similar to the following:
     501 39658     1   0 12Feb24 ??         0:24.96 gpg-agent --homedir
/Users/pluby/.gnupg --use-standard-socket --daemon

3. Kill the "gpg-agent" command by executing the following command. Note:
replace ### with the second number from the left in the output from step 2:
     kill ###

4. Rerun the command in step 2. If step 3 was successful, there should be no
output.

5. Launch LibreOffice
