After MUCH work, I determined that the crash happens during a sort and I can
now reproduce the bug in a small project!! I am sending the project to
Ruslan and filing this in Mantis.

MORE INFO:

If your app is searching and sorting data while data is being added to it
rapidly, the app will eventually crash. I illustrated this by creating two
timers. One timer populates the db, the other searches and sorts it. In
REALbasic, timers do NOT run concurrently so there is no issue with threads
or simultaneous access. Furthermore, the timer that is populating the
database is flushing after each added record.

In my sample project, the app takes only a few seconds to crash.
