Under suggestion of Lia, I have modified the geane parameters for the material "air", adding the following lines in gconfig/Geane.C:

TGeoMedium *o=gGeoManager->GetMedium("air");
o->SetParam(3, .4); 


to change the maximum angle of deflection inside the magnetic field.
In this case the analysis proceeds without errors. If I use larger values, such as 0.5 or greater, then I have the crash exactly at the same pointx.
I don't know if maybe it could be good to change this option for the common geane parameters, or if this is just a hard fix...

I have tried with a different data set and I have followed in the same problem,. This time I had to go to 0.05 in orer to get rid of that crash. And, once I am applying such lower cuts, I have seen that there are more warnings such as:

FitterException thrown with excString:
cov_is_zero
in line: 257 in file: /home/stefano/july09/pandaroot/genfit/Kalman.cxx
with fatal flag 0

Then maybe gendoit is skipping those tracks/reco hits.
