One modification: If it does crash again in this fashion after turning the igate back on, try this instead:
xastir -v2047 2>&1 >~/xastir-crash.log
That will make a LARGE file of all that Xastir does, hopefully catching the error in enough detail if Xastir crashes on you again.
Note that you can't run Xastir in this manner long-term without rolling the file with external programs. It would fill up your disk over time otherwise.
