I unfortunately don't have very much time to work on that at the moment, and I'm still seeing crashes. Below is a backtrace when trying to fit the curve created with 'kst --xe 0:100:500 --ye "sqrt(2*x)+1.4*x-0.02*x^2"':

If anybody has an idea where that might come from, help is welcome! Another option would be to try another implementation of the Levenberg-Marquardt solver, since even when it does not crash there are cases where the results are not as good as xmgrace's. There is a GPL'd one at http://www.ics.forth.gr/~lourakis/levmar/ which looks quite good, but I have not had time to test it yet.
