Application: kate (3.3.85)
KDE Platform Version: 4.3.85 (KDE 4.3.85 (KDE 4.4 Beta2)) (Compiled from sources)
Qt Version: 4.6.0
Operating System: Linux 2.6.31-ARCH i686
Distribution (Platform): Archlinux Packages

-- Information about the crash:
Here using:

Qt: 4.6.0 (kde-qt master commit 747ff8e6ef6f5a1163dfa75bc9ac4755ce7083d1
        Date:   Tue Dec 15 11:58:13 2009 +0100)
KDE Development Platform: 4.3.85 (KDE 4.3.85 (KDE 4.4 Beta2))
kdelibs svn rev. 1065942 / kdebase svn rev. 1065942
on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.31.6

Steps to reproduce:
--

- Create two files with some content on it
  - 'echo "foobar1" > foobar1'
  - 'echo "foobar2" > foobar2'
- Open Kate
- Load this two documents at the same time
Kate opens the two documents and shows "foobar2"
- From Konsole, append new content to the "foobar2" file
  - 'echo "foobar2" >> foobar2'
Kate will notice the change and it will open the "file modified" dialog
- Do not touch that dialog yet ...
- From Konsole, append new content to the "foobar1" file
  - 'echo "foobar1" >> foobar1'
Kate will append the new changed document (foobar1) to the "file modified" dialog
- Press "Reload" into the "file modified" dialog
Kate crashes.

If you repeat this steps to much with the same file set (foobar1 and foobar2), it may stop happening (caching related?)

The crash can be reproduced everytime.
