Nah.

7.1 crashes a significant portion of the time when doing a "save as" from a
script (I think it's 20-30%, but nearly always after the save happen).

That makes this a feature, not a bug, as it's the same behavior as 7 :)

(years ago, I worked in software QA for Olivetti on DOS.  When we found a
way to bring down the machine, if the IBM PC crashed the same way, it was a
feature . . .)

You are not alone.

I noticed that also, but had not the time yet to investigate further or report 
it as bug.

Thanks - I will see how repeatable I can make my own crash, and hopefully add 
my two eurocents to bug 18320

This is all on a Mac running El Capitan 10.11.6

This looks like a bug to me, but I just wonder if anyone has experienced 
anything like this before I report it.


I just had a crash on save of a new stack (so that's a bit different), 
but I added my crash log to bug 18320.
