Bugs don't get fixed if they don't get reported, so please send email
to the list when a development version crashes.  (In the case of this
one, it might already be fixed: update to the tip of crew and see if
it goes away.)

Known bug which has been fixed.  Probably the THg preview that you're
using does not have the fix.  The workaround is to remove Hg's cvsps
cache directory.  On Unix, that's ~/.hg.cvsps; I have no idea where it
is on Windows.  Try looking in your home directory.

Good luck!  (You're going to need it.)
