Sure! I've added it to the post on github. I've slightly edited the log
out of paranoia (replacing a customer ID and auth key).

I can confirm now that I ran this proxy with the upstreamfair module
overnight and it didn't crash at all. I can't get it to preferentially
serve to localhost, though, as it doesn't support 'backup' as a server
attribute, and doesn't seem to really use the weights, so that's suboptimal.

Anything else I can add to help troubleshooting this? Anything you'd like
from the core dump?
