I would be very grateful if you send me a UCI log of some example game where it crashed, I've installed Banksia GUI (since I usually use Arena) so I'm trying to replicate the problem.

If you have spare time, you can also enable Crash Files in UCI options, so if Inanis crashes, it will make a new directory "crash" with a text file inside. This might also help me to at least understand what and where something happened.
