I can't reproduce the cases mentioned either.  This is with a GCC4
hybrid of r33299.  I can however make Tracker kind of just gracefully
close if I try to use the Find dialog several times in a row.  I then
have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and Restart Desktop to get things happy again.
Other than that, it has seemed rock solid (even when I was using that
installation to demo Haiku with the CPU pegged most of the time).
