Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apport

When a very large program crashes (say... firefox), the crash notifier will pop 
up before the crash file has been written out all the way, causing a number of 
issues:
 - repeated "new crash" notification popups as the crash file grows
 - apport-gtk complains the crash is corrupted (since it is still growing)

I would suggest an rsync-style "temp" filename to be used until apport
is finished building the crash file, which can then be moved into place.

** Affects: apport (Ubuntu)
