crash on TXF export

[Benji Fisher]

     I am a complete newbie to GnuCash.  I am trying to decide if it is
possible to move from Quicken (on MacOS X) to GnuCash (on Linux).

     I tried to create a TXF file for last year.  I could generate the
report as HTML, but when I chose the TXF radio button and tried to
create the report, GnuCash died instantly.  Is this a known problem, or
am I doing something strange?

GnuCash 1.8.1 on Red Hat 9
same result after upgrading to GnuCash 1.8.1.
