I've started working with lyx 1.6.2 under macosx, and sometimes the

trace with the C++ code calls that happened before the crash.


I was wondering if this information is useful to somebody, since I 
read on the lyx' website that unreproducible bugs are ignored.


You could post the backtrace, but if you're not using a debug-enabled 
build, it might not mean much.


Bugs we can't reproduce aren't so much ignored as, well, hard to work 
on. I.e., impossible to work on.
