Comment (by raziel-):

 Yep, the bug is definitely size-based regarding the detection.plugin.

 Myst3 runs perfectly fine, as do other games (even AGS games show up with
 a 50/50 chance) with only certain engines built into detection.plugin
 (f.e. AGS, Myst3, Scumm)

 A sized-based bug in the detection.plugin would also explain my random
 crashes on consecutive starts of scummvm (after closing it at least one
 time)

 I have lots of free ram available btw, so that can't be it.
 I'm suspecting a list, that might be created from detection.plugin on-the-
 fly to look up known/unknown/supported games, causes some mischief in the
 background (if too big)...but that is, of course, pure guess-work.

 Maybe someone has an idea?
 Please?
