It might be a bug in KScoreDialog or not: it depends if the highscores 
message is being displayed immediately after the crash, is it?
Eugene: if you want to track it down, you can launch the game under gdb, 
the debugger. Type

gdb kmines

And when it loads, type:

run

KMines will then execute inside the debugger. Instead of crashing, it 
will stop when the crash happens. You will see additional info in the 
console. Type:

backtrace

And you will get a list of the calling stack. This is useful to help 
developers identify quickly exactly which method caused the error.

I have not seen this particular issue yet, btw, but I will try to 
reproduce it.
