Great - can you tell me how or give me a reference on setting up core dumps?

Running gdb requires your debug version, as well as the linked lib*.dev.
Here are the two .deb files built for debugging:

I ran gdb/columbus overnight and it didn't crash. But possibly running without gdb but with core dumps will help.

Unfortunately this morning my N900 seems to have bricked. I'm hesitating before reflashing it in the hope that it magically comes back to life. But I may be unable to help you further with this issue for some time.

[UPDATE]My phone is unbricked. The problem was somehow caused by columbus - its install scripts removed some library directories from /etc/ld.so.conf which mean that core apps (modest) wouldn't load which sent the phone into a reboot loop.
