"undocumented functionality"? No the app only uses standard, documented parts of the Android SDK. It's difficult to pinpoint the exact cause as the Android Market doesn't allow you to contact the users which experience these problems. However, I believe the activity which causes the force close issues only uses a TabHost and MapActivity and is not very complicated.
Short of buying every Android phone on the market, debugging an issue which doesn't present itself on the emulator or my physical device is a near impossibility.
