I have a bugged save here http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=14079 that crashes after 2 minutes. I added it in a comment on http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=10880.

Are there any standard debugging tips to try to work around crashes? I saw somewhere someone suggested forbidding everything; I tried that, crash still occurred.

Are there other things to try? Is there a general list of debugging steps somewhere?

Thanks!

Set Print Mode:2D
Save starts on 138-06-12 and usually crashes on 138-06-14
I tried each of these individually and each still resulted in a crash:

• cancel all job manager jobs
• Dwarf Therapist disable all labors for all dwarves
• disable invaders
• disable artifacts/moods
• Set population max to 125 and children to 0:0
• Set visitor cap 0
• DFhack clean all; clean map item
• DFhack autodump destroy (all the 6153 stone)
• DFhack exterminate forgotten_beast_124
• DFhack exterminate human
• DFhack migrants-now
• DFhack autodump destroy (all 17121 items in stocks)

Then I tried:
DFhack exterminate dwarf
Ran for a while.  Goblin siege arrived on 138-07-04 crashed on 138-07-08.

Next I tried:
Set visitor cap 0
Dfhack exterminate forgotten beast, dwarf, elf, goblin.
138-07-04 Goblin siege arrived. 
138-07-13 Ineth Rithtathtat transformed into a weregecko.
138-07-15 turned back into a dwarf.
138-07-28 game crashed.

Finally I tried:
Retire fortress (for the time being)
Reclaim/unretire
138-06-26  (Exterminated the bronze colossus, couldn't be bothered to deal with it.)
No siege came
No weregecko because Ineth was killed by the bronze colossus at the start.
138-08-10 game is still running.

edit:
138-10-04 game is still running.

Thanks! I wonder what retire/reclaim fixes.
