FYI,

I appear to be even dumber than I first suspected <grin>.

Yep,

the fix I thought was a fix, apparently delays the time before it
crashes for me on windows but I do get it to eventually crash...

Are you sure that the tool tip stops it from crashing?  With my
non-fix - it didn't crash for a large number of trying to crash it
(but did give the garbage still), but after about 50 trys on windows
it would crash. (Still crashed instantly on linux though...).
