Try using the latest nightly, which contains about the only possible fix I
could think of (even that is in the 'can't happen' category).

I've run a test of 1000 commits of a large file + 1000 commits of a small file
and had no problems.  I've no idea what could be causing since the crashdumps
I have seen basically involve sudden memory corruption, and there's nothing
external affecting it.
