I'm also seeing these spurious crashes when adding or remoing tracks, but cannot reproduce them. Looks suspiciously like memory corruption causes at some earlier point somewhere else in the code. Extremely difficult to track.
Without a reproducible test project this bug report doesn't help, so I'm closing such stale reports.
