I can!

It's even easier if you increase the move delay. Set the move delay to 3000
and you have 3 seconds to click in the dice when there is no legal move. At
the system I'm using right here now this happens.

* I setup this position:

 GNU Backgammon  Position ID: ql7wQQDbtoEBIA
                 Match ID   : EQEAAAAAAAAA

 +13-14-15-16-17-18------19-20-21-22-23-24-+     X: user (Cube: 2)

* I set the move delay to 3000 milliseconds so I have time to click the
dice.

* I select "Play comuter turn" in the edit menu

* GNU hits something

* I dance of course

* While my dice is still on the table (in 3 seconds), I click the dice.

* I get the player cannot move dialog, and I click ok in this dialog.

* The computer rolls and moves and.....

* then it crashes.

I can not see if there is a assertion error in play.c and I see the crash
does not appear untill after gnubg moves after my dance. So there is some
difference between this and bug 9586, but since they're so similar I guess
they are related.
