Thanks for testing. The problem is that - afaik - we did never exactly find
out what the reason for the crash 
was, we just know that it is likely to occur in almost empty areas.
So, the absence of a crash with your data doesn't mean the problem is solved
:-(
It may also be related to gps firmware. 

@Felix: Are you able to reproduce the problem reported in this thread?

Please try also the removeShortArcs_v2.patch. This reduces the amount of
data needed to store the coast line information in the *.img file by ~ 25%,
so it reduces the likelyhood for the "There is not enough room in a single
garmin map for all the input data" message. I hope that WanMils work on the
new mp_cut branch will provide a much better solution for this.
