Ok a hang is different than a crash. If it actually crashes you should get
a Crash Report dialog that comes up wit the stack crawl.
If it is hanging, doing a sample of the widget process could help us narrow
down.
Run activity monitor to find the PID of the process and then once you have
that do:
sample <pid> 3
I believe you have to be an apple developer to submit a bug report to apple.
Not sure what that involves. Feel free to send the sample information to
the list.
Thanks,
