Nothing in the trace file looks very interesting, but I can send it.  This is what I see in the syslog from the initial launch.  What I do to illicit a crash is make a trivial change to a transaction, then quit and answer "Save" to the changed dialog.  It seems to save the DB then crash.  I included all the intervening syslog entries between launch and the crash detection; I know they are probably irrelevant.
