#12291: [Debugger] Exhibits inconsistent behavior & doesn't save a crash report

Running rm through "stdbuf" invariably crashes it:
{{{
stdbuf -o L rm -rf /some/directory/
}}}
({{{/some/directory}}} doesn't even need to exist, that's optional.)

Attempting to click "save report" in the resulting crash dialog does
create a file on Desktop with either:
* first few lines of the stacktrace, but there's nothing beyond that and
Debugger just starts chewing up lots and lots of memory.
* all the way to the start of the "Semaphores" group (but nothing in it),
with Debugger sitting at a constant (low) memory usage using no CPU.

I can't figure out what's causing this. The system isn't under heavy load,
has plenty of ports free (only 118 used), and it always occurs, even after
a reboot.

x86_64 (does not occur on x86_gcc2), hrev49425 in VirtualBox. It would be
nice to get a solution to this soon, as it's blocking me working on the
Kitchen more, as I'm hesitant to use a workaround on "rm" until I know
what the bug is...
