[b40] Maze: minotaur of the labyrinth bug

[jarjarbinks]

I'm posting this as a [b40] bug as this has been present since at least [b37] and I'm hoping it'll get fixed eventually.

Running [b40] on OSX 10.7.3:

Every time I reload my character and enter the 2nd level of the maze my system ends up freezing (complete kernel panic, with the need for a reboot of the system) as soon as (or at most a few rounds after) the Minotaur of the Labyrinth turns up on the screen. Any advice? Or is it a game breaker?

(Note: The same bug also happens with other NPCs later in the game)

Right after restarting the system and looking at the system.log, I find the messages promptly cut off in mid-sentence, as it were, and then the full-blown kernel:

As an aside, the system.log also shows pages and pages of these lines with varying codes and coordinates:
