[0.95][CRASH] CTD after saving a game (save file + crash dump attached)

nooooooooooooo!!!!!

from Elemental Forums

So I was really enjoying my first game of beta 4 on Normal difficulty with a medium map.  I played maybe 8 or 9 hours total over the weekend, saving and reloading several times during different play sessions, and had no trouble at all.  Then today I loaded up my game, played a few turns, went to save it, and CRASH!  This is what I got:

Naturally I re-loaded the game and attempted to save it again, but it crashed again. Every time I try to save my game, the crash happens, so unfortunately my game has become unplayable at this point and I'll have to start a new one. I'm loving beta 4 so far, the game is shaping up to be everything I could ever want in a fantasy TBS. I just hope that serious, fundamental problems like this get fixed before release.

To help you guys out, I have uploaded the debug.err here: debug.err

And here's the crash dump

Last but not least, I hope you can reproduce the crash using this save game

I don't really expect anyone to reply to my post, but when you guys figure this out it would be interesting to know exactly what the problem was.

I've encountered the same issue. It seems my games on large maps eventually reach a point where I can no longer save the games without crashing, and when it happens, it seems to retroactively affect older save games as well. (Reloading an older game save produces the same effect). I've emailed my relevant files to files to SD on the issue. Happened two games in a row now.  I think it's related to the general weirdness FE seems to have with save/load functions, in that when you load a saved game, there's a potential for glitches or game corruption.
