It's more likely a problem related to threading and MP; there are
some known issues there, which Nathan Williams hopes to fix soon.

I recall being able to crash my MP machine by running netscape7 the
other day, but I'm away from home for a few days, so I can't check
right now. This is likely to be the same problem, I may look at
that in the weekend when I'm back.

I expect this to be fixed within a few weeks, so I guess patience
will pay off..
