I don't have other versions, but I'm happy to submit a bug report.
I'll see if I can generate a wee project that reproduces the behavior.
hmmm... I tried adding a new attribute table and it came up without data and
crashed
I enabled "ulimit -c unlimited" and started from the command line. I see these
errors:
Warning: QObject::connect: Incompatible sender/receiver arguments
QgsComposerItemComboBox::itemChanged(QgsComposerItem*) -->
QgsComposerAttributeTableWidget::composerMapChanged(const QgsComposerItem*)
restarting I couldn't get it to crash, but the new attribute table also has
stale data.
