Hi Lightroomers!

I've been doing some work to organize my keywords recently (it's a lot of work if you don't do it at once, which I didn't). Now I just found that LR can import photos from my iPhone - which is good. I prefer having lower-quality photos in a separate catalog, so I was trying to export the keywords from my main catalog, but the export keywords dialog just came up and disappeared again, after which LR crashed! (A rare event) Now it has gone into a state where every time I try to export keywords, the dialog comes up briefly, and after that LR seems to work, but I can't quit it.

I'm working on a MacBook with OS X 1'.5, with LR 2.5. I've used this as my main machine for a long period without any problems, never seen anything like this before. Any of you seen it?
 
Tried a couple more times. Eventually I went into the Catalog Settings and picked "Relaunch and Optimize", thinking maybe there was something corrupt in my keywords. After that, I was able to export keywords no problem, and my keywords seem to be unaffected (in the large, at least, can't tell if a few have disappeared).

So now you know, if you hit the same problem
