Unlikely.  I've had it running on OpenSuSE-11.3 64-bit for over a year with no hiccups.  You might have some flaky memory in a bank or two or they may be bugs in other libraries that Xastir links to, which end up killing the main program when they get exercised.  Been there.

Seeing the last 10 or 20 lines may help discover the problem, may not.
