[Garth Corral <gcorral@xxxxxxxxx>]

No, i’m not aware of a bug filed.  I didn’t file one but probably should have.  I stumbled across the issue I addressed recently; it has existed for some time but was exposed by bzr 5834, which made kicad more strict about enforcing wxPython sanity at startup.

Hmm… The linked bug looks like a separate issue, though it may be related.  I’ve noticed crashes on quit sometimes when things go poorly on scripting initialization.  The fact that things were more silent in that regard previously could have masked the startup issue but still segfaulted on quit.  So, this may address that as well.  If I get a chance I’ll try to reproduce that issue, but I’ve not seen it recently.
