Yesterday would be nice ;). Ill keep trying to get a test case.  In
the mean time here is a new backtrace I just got (lord knows how... it
seems to be as soon as I stop trying to make it crash and look away,
thats when it does).  This is 2 commits ( the one i reference in my
later email) after 8.3 was stamped.  Happens to be the same query as
before...
