As far as I see template of crash is next:

    fldText or blob = something

    ...  >>> here exceptino is throw,
    
    AddRecord()

    so AddRecord() is not executed, you go to Shutdown,
    which start cleanup, note that BLOB field is in DIRTY state.

Well, simple C++ test did not reproduce problem with shutdown.
Do you have way reproduce it?

I think you can try redesign a little code to avoid such crash future.

    move code which do/can throw exception BEFORE you start
    assign table fields. May be collect some result into local vars.

And only when you have all required info on hands, start assign table
fields.
