I have to hand it to you; that's one of the most complicated prompt strings
I've ever seen.

In any event, that didn't help me reproduce the seg fault, but I was able
to use the stack traceback you sent to find a problem. I've attached a
patch.

Bash does catch SIGSEGV and does some cleanup, to the extent that it can do
anything, and kills itself with the same signal (that's why you see 139 as
the exit status). That should still result in a core dump.
