I see this a lot, to the point that terminal is basically unusable if used with another activity. You can debug this by logging in with ssh and attaching to terminal with gdb. You will need to install some debuginfo packages.
See the attached terminal-segfault-gdb.txt for the transcript of such a session. I don't have all of the debug-info packages installed, but we can see the problem occurs at
Frame 0x8d61a0, for file /home/olpc/Activities/Terminal.activity/terminal.py, line 424, in write_file

I don't understand why, but the attached patch, which provides an empty dictionary to get_text() in place of the None argument, prevents the segmentation fault.

Replying to quozl:

Did you tried this patch with more than one tab opened in the terminal? looks like still crash. Any idea?

- Keywords AU1B removed
In AU1B I am including a version of terminal patched to not get the terminal text, to avoid the crash.

Remove the AU1B keyword, but this need be solved upstream.

- Resolution set to fixed
- Status changed from new to closed
Can't reproduce, it appears to be fixed. Closing.
The acitivity finish with a "Terminated by signal 11" final message in the log,
many times, when the user switch to another activity or the home view.
