Hi,
I have simulated the VM (nightly, it's too long),

| cos |
cos := CogVMSimulator newWithOptions: #(Cogit StackToRegisterMappingCogit
ObjectMemory Spur32BitCoMemoryManager
ISA ARMv5 ).
cos desiredNumStackPages: 8.
cos openOn: 'Squeak5.3-19431-32bit.image'.
cos openAsMorph; run

It starts normally thru simulator (I don't attach the screen snapshot, but
it takes more than 2G byteCodes/241k sends to obtain the preference wizard)

Could the crash be related to the cross-compiler?
Is it gcc or clang currently for ARM builds?
On macos, -fsanitize=undefined notices a few unaligned memory access...
Could it be a clue?
