I'll have to check all this tonight.
I did wonder if the traceback is because the crash happens in the
subprocess - meaning that the communication channel breaks - causing the
traceback. That is pure conjecture though. :-)

Happens every time.
The traceback occurs almost instantaneously on the crash (a memory
location could not be read error).

I never actually see the ``ImportError``, it's obviously being trapped
and the exception occurs somewhere else. So I need to track down where
the crash happens - presumably in ``EditorWindow.open_module``.
I'll report back.
All the best,
