ReaEQ stopped working in Audacity

Reaper's ReaEQ stopped working with Audacity from Audacity 2.1.1 I think. I have tried it in audacity-win-rbd9fc44-2.1.3-alpha-13-apr-16 with Windows 10, all it does is open. Nothing else.

ReaEQ is a handy high/low/band pass/notch filter with dB gain. Can you recommend any others?

The above alpha build works for everything I have tried to do with it. Other than ReaEQ.

ReaEQ v2.36 32-bit works for me on Windows 10 in the latest 2.1.3-alpha, except that clicking "Add Band" and "Remove Band" freezes Audacity, requiring force quit. That does not happen in 2.1.1.

The crashes are already noted in http://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1279. ReaEQ is usable for me if I only use the graph.

No success yet trying to reproduce this. Are there more precise steps?

He's working on it.

It works if I import a custom preset from an early enough audacity and if I don't click to add or remove a tab. Good enough.
