I see this issue on Fedora and Mac OS X, probable Windows as well but its as good at reporting the problem.

From what I have found out the problem is that when you delete a python object it will clean up related objects in any old order.
But the C++ Qt Objects must be deleted in a specific order.

I have on my todo list to write the delete code for one of my larger Qt Windows to attempt to avoid this
for SCM Workbench. I see that it is only after certain UI elements are create that the crash happens on exit.
