It may be, that you've run into a compiler bug.
You could try to apply this patch:
http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/commit/8798b36880d1387d2d27f7fb35ccbf02af6232a0
or use Qt 4.6.1, when it has been released.

If that also doesn't work, then you can create release binaries with 
debug information. I'd do that at least for the Qt modules core and gui. 
To do this, edit the following files:

src\corelib\Makefile.Release
src\gui\Makefile.Release

in the CXXFLAGS line add the switch -Zi.

CXXFLAGS = -Zi -nologo -Zm200 ...

in the LFLAGS line, add the switch /DEBUG

LFLAGS = /DEBUG /LIBPATH: ...

Now recompile the modules, you've changed the makefiles for.

*start Visual Studio command prompt
setcepaths <my-mkspec>
cd src\corelib
nmake -f Makefile.Release clean all
cd ..\..\src\corelib
nmake -f Makefile.Release clean all

Now you should be able to get a stack trace for a crash.
