ScummVM 2.7.1 PS3 crashes the entire OS — at Initial Version

Description

The PS3 pkg of ScummVM 2.7.1 causes the entire system to crash. When you attempt to start it, after a few seconds of black screen, the console boots into recovery mode and you get a message about the system not being able to start properly, followed by a forced filesystem restore.
This has happened to at least two different users (myself and another user on psx-place). Tested on Evilnat 4.90 CFW and Evilnat 4.90.2 BETA CFW.

Furthermore, this might also leave the system in an unstable state requiring the reinstallation of the firmware. In one test the system would not boot any games (neither homebrew nor retail) until the firmware was reinstalled. In a second test it would boot games but not XMB plugins (e.g., webMAN MOD), again forcing a firmware reinstall.

Version 2.7.0 works fine so this must have been a recent change.

Due to the nature of the issue affecting the entire system and the possibility of the system being left in a semi-bricked state until a firmware reinstall I would kindly ask you to remove the download of 2.7.1 PS3 package or revert it to 2.7.0 until the issue is resolved.

Thank you.
