I tried without success to get this to happen under Unix, so I
downloaded the overnight windows build and ran it under wine, whereon I
got it sporadically happening - always in my tests after running New
from Current. I could see that it was collecting Undo information,
which, since the score has to be saved before you can run the script,
is not needed - it may be that dropping this will fix the crash(*).
So I've put a change in to stop it collecting Undo information on that
command - it'll be built overnight as usual.

(*) of course, it shouldn't crash because of collecting Undo
information, but it could run out of memory....
