It turned out that my running Amarok on a remote display, as I did 
yesterday, was enough to keep it from crashing.  When I was sitting 
at the computer, it would crash fine enough.

Then I installed the Xine/phonon package so that I could use Xine as 
the backend in place of GStreamer.  Using Xine apparently keeps 
Amarok from crashing.

Whew....
