3) What is expected to happen in any snes game is one starts the game, presses F2 to save the state, and immediately press F4 to load the state, and it does so.

4) What happens instead is zsnes crashes consistently, effectively disabling the functionality.

Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate a useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
at the time of the report:

outdated debug symbol package for libstdc++6: package version 4.7.2-2ubuntu1 dbgsym version 4.6.3-1ubuntu5
outdated debug symbol package for initscripts: package version 2.88dsf-13.10ubuntu13 dbgsym version 2.88dsf-13.10ubuntu11.1
outdated debug symbol package for libtxc-dxtn-s2tc0: package version 0~git20110809-3 dbgsym version 0~git20110809-2.1

Please upgrade your system to the latest package versions. If you still
encounter the crash, please file a new report.

Thank you for your understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience!
