I was afraid you were going to say this.
The current epub this is happening in is a book I'm working on -- with 13 files (currently 8 chapter files, coverpage, TOC, etc.) of about 324K size and approximately 42K words. The book is not copyrighted currently, and I'm the sole author.
I'm willing to put some time into helping debug this and producing a small test case -- if one exists. But my situation is one where I don't want to stop book development and devote excessive time to that exercise. I'm sure you understand. The report function is very convenient for me (largely because it gives me a word count), but it's not essential. Unless, of course, this turns out to be a symptom of a more fundamental error, either in the book files themselves (undiagnosed other than by Reports crashing) or in some part of Sigil code outside of Reports. It does look like something's throwing an exception and it's just not being caught at an informative place.
I'll put a day into attempting to isolate the problem. (I've got about 30 years of software design/development behind me, and if there's a simple test case to be found, I should be able to find it in that time.) I also have a slightly earlier version that doesn't exhibit the problem, but I suspect that's of little value.
If there's any way for me to run this under a debugger, I'd be happy to do that. But I'm really no longer set up to do development myself. Otherwise, stand by, and I should be able to get you a test case by tomorrow with any luck.
