My emacs session crashed randomly, when presing "RET" to open a
directory in dired. Unfortunately, I don't have much more debugging or gdb
information.

I was actually in isearch mode, searching for the directory name, and
then pressed "RET", when the crashed happened.
I have defined an advise on iserch-exit, which causes "RET" to do
(dired-find-file) when on a dired buffer. I include the relevant code below:
(defadvice isearch-exit (before dired-search-maybe-follow activate)
(isearch-ret-maybe-passthrough)
(when (and isearch-forward isearch-other-end)
(goto-char isearch-other-end)))
(defun isearch-ret-maybe-passthrough ()
(when (member (this-command-keys) '([return] ""))
(case major-mode
('dired-mode (dired-find-file))
('gnus-summary-mode (gnus-summary-scroll-up nil)))))
