  I am certain that I had a similar backtrace from kicker at least once when 
changing styles [1] which makes me wonder if either kicker does the same 
thing, or if this is only part of the problem.  Amazing job to find a fix so 
fast though!  Thanks :)

[1] Yes I have been sitting here changing styles for quite a long time trying 
to get more useful info from the crash.
