Hi Ilya,
Thanks for reporting this... any idea whether it takes days or weeks to crash?
Also, are you using ALSA and what audio hardware? (that's usually where the trouble comes in :)

i have been running the 0.41-0test6 for a few weeks now (may be it's already a month) ..
i usually keep pd running all the time , just with dsp swithced of (well sometimes i forget to do even that).
when i used version 0.40 i almost havent had any crashes - apart from when myself screwed something up and it hang cause that was too much ;]
basiclly what i noticed about the 0.41-0 , that after i leave it running for a while - pd-gui sort of hangs, so it keeps saying 'watchdog: signaling pd ...'
after i kill the gui - it stops saying that, but there are still two proceses hanging - pd and pd-watchdog, i couldn't manage to kill those yet .. there actually two pairs hanging right now .. it didn't have any sofisticated patches open - just a couple of pretty basic abstractions in my init patch and probably a few helpfiles were left overnight.
i did modify pd.tk , it is work in progress , but i attach it here.
i got gentoo-linux system, which is relatively stable and up-to-date.
gcc (GCC) 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r2, ssp-3.4.6-1.0, pie-8.7.10); glibc-2.5; linux-2.6.20-gentoo-r8; Tcl/Tk version 8.4 .. i got CONFIG_RT_MUTEX=y, but icouldn't sort out pam_limits to really enable it yet. i run pd with -rt, may that cause actual problem ? i ran 0.40 with -rt as well, was no porblem.
