I'll mention this although I know way too little about your computer
configuration to know whether it has any relevance. I mention it
because the notion of crashes during mouse tracking was a particular
problem for a system I worked on just recently...
Be sure that whatever Apple CPU you are using has had ALL of the
firmware updates available for it installed.
The system I worked on recently was a relatively late model G4 tower.
I'd put in plenty of RAM, a good, fast drive with plenty of excess
capacity, all the Mac OS X updates, had done diligence to get rid of
all skanky things and bring all the apps installed to the latest
revisions. It still crashed constantly on basic things like System
Preferences, in Word or AppleWorks, etc, and almost always in
mouse-tracking kinds of activities. Researching the problem, I found
that the most recent *firmware* update available for that model had not
been applied.
I hunted up the latest firmware updates (there were two, one for the
optical drive and one for the cpu on that particular configuration),
installed them. In two months since I did that, the machine has not yet
crashed a single time where before that it was crashing 3 to 5 times a
day with similar "kernel protection failure" results.

I'm crashing all the time with Xcode 1.5. It seems that any mouse
tracking is vulnerable to a crash like below. It's happened in window
resize and menu tracking.
Does this look familiar to anybody else? I've sent the reports to
Apple.
To the Xcode team: If you have any tips for working around this, I'd
love to hear about it. Thanks!
