Ah - sorry if this was unclear: I don't know if the warning is related to the segfault. I just started noticing both at about the same time. When the segfault occurs, R is frozen. The console displays an options dialogue for shutting it down, but accepts no input.
With several more freezes today a pattern seems to emerge: once I have edited for a while, the freeze happens when I select a part of a line of code. B.
