I've seen this with 19.14 occasionally, although usually it just quits.
I think one time I caught it, and my memory is that it looks vaguely
related to how the shutdown auto-save into a deleted directory behaved
for me.  So it's possible the auto-save fixes will help here.

Or it might be totally unrelated. :)
