Humm, I just doubled checked myself and when I tried to save a Folder over
an already existing Folder it didn't crash.  It complained "Sorry, can't
replace folders", but keep running fine.

Maybe you could send me email that describes exactly what you are doing and
what kind of system setup you have.  Then I might be able to either find
the bug or diagnose the problem for you...

P.S.  It's pEIrce.  No big deal, but...
