For my own future reference:

The program was crashing on the DrawPrimitiveUP call in
d3d_flush_vertex_cache.  Upgrading the nvidia drivers seemed to make
the crashes go away.

The remaining problem is that after alt-tabbing out, the program often
will not restore.  The device Reset calls return D3DERR_INVALIDCALL.
