I know what these are and they wouldn't help in any way in this specific
case.

As I said previously, we need the input passed to aapt, or at a minimum some
information about the things that contributed to the crash (e.g. your
manifest file,
for example).

there is not enough detail in your work-around post to infer *anything*
about the origin of the crash. For example, can you share two versions of
your manifest files (one that doesn't crash, and the other that does,
preferrably with as few changes as possible between them)?

Do you understand that I'm trying to help fix the problem for you and other
people that might encounter it in the future?

Ranting with CAPITAL LETTERS without trying to provide a minimum amount of
information is   a disservice to other developers and the people trying to
help you.

a crash address is not enough information.
