Since (evidently) no one is actively works on fixing that bug, I see
no reasons to punish people who run the trunk codebase by imposing on
them random crashes they cannot recover from.  As long as the bug
remains open, we didn't forget about it, and will fix it eventually;
in the meantime, let users have one less reason for crashes.
