Unfortunately:

1) Software actually developed by the MDV community is a small
percentage of the distro.  Most of it is written by upstream developers,
who will use whatever they like.

2) Of the bugs reported against MDV-developed software, only a small
percentage have to do with crashes that can be traced to the type of
problem you describe.  Most are behavioral issues or packaging issues.
