I think there are some crashes that depend on a big amount of things,
sometimes including the data to be played. So they are fairly difficult
to reproduce though mostly possible. One could also imagine some
data that is not properly initialized and thus containing random garbage.
So if they are not many, the potential for them to exist is there IMHO.
