Crash when deleting nodes [8.5.3]

Today when I deleted envelope nodes on an instrument track, Sonar crashed.  I did it again, and Sonar crashed again.  It seems to happen if I try to delete the last node in the envelope.

I've been using 8.5.3 for years and haven't had the problem until now, so I suspect it has something to do with recent changes in how I work.

For one thing, I'm using instrument tracks.  Also, I cloned one instrument track to another, and I see duplicate envelopes.  If I move a node up in one, the other envelope's node mirrors the change.

Any idea what is causing the crash?  Is this a known bug with instrument track envelopes?

(And by the way, by "instrument track" I mean simple instrument track, where MIDI and Audio are represented by the same track).

    I noticed a couple of weird things with instrument tracks last night.

    I had a frozen instrument track which simply would not let me lock its contents, either through my shortcuts or through right-clicking the clip. The commands are there but refuse to work.

    In desperation, I unfroze the track to take a deeper look. The first thing I tried was to glue my clips together by using Bounce to Clip.

    This wouldn't work. So I then reverted the Simple Instrument track to separate Midi & Audio.
    For some reason, the audio track still contained a waveform, even though the track was unfrozen.

    The audio clips were locked, so I unlocked them, deleted the waveform, froze the Midiagain and everything behaved normally afterwards.

    But what a pain!

    So are these part of the reason everyone tells us not to use Simple Instrument Tracks?

    Were your problems in 8.5.3 or X1b?
