There are quite a few exception tracebacks in those (surprisingly many,
really). You can decode them, to an extent (gps_exe is supplied without
full debug information, so not very helpful at first glance: for
example, for the first 2017 one,

On thinking about it, though, the one that crashed the program probably
wouldn't have made it into the log file. To find the problem one would
need to rebuild GPS with debug on. Personally I find there are just too
many dependencies, and I don't use GPS enough to go to the trouble.
