I think it may be the compass app. It was doing that to me on 1.6.1. Seems to time out and reboot if it can't locate your position fast enough. I finally got it to work if I opened another app requiring location (weatherbug) immediately before opening compass.

Also, even after calibrating, it never pointed north. Pointed WNW or ENE.
