It is interesting that it's crashing. Did you confirm that you're testing with
the same version of SpiderMonkey (jslib) on Windows and Linux? When I get a
chance, I'll see if I can pass on a trace to the SpiderMonkey guys. They may
have already fixed this one.

Anyway, String.split() doesn't take a regexp as an argument, so what you're
trying to do won't work anyway. See
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String for
details.
