Description
An event workspace does not have to be given any sort of X representation (binning) when it is created, so the algorithm shouldn't seg fault when trying to do so.

There is of course no reason why you could not call rebin straight after creating it if you wanted to simulate a "virgin" event workspace. eg.
ws=CreateSampleWorkspace("Event",XMin=10000,XMax=30000,BinWidth=200) #rebin to a single bin like a raw event workspace ws=rebin(ws,Params=[10000,20000,30000],PreserveEvents=True)

Also there is a fix around single bin width creation in #9568 that might fix it.

I tried this again and I can't reproduce the error. I can make an event workspace with one bin by making the bin width the size of the range between min and max.

Can you include the python command you are trying to use?
I have several tests using
and they seem to be fine.
I do have a known issue that xUnit is ignored whatever you set it to and xMin and XMax cannot be less than 0.
The way the algorithm work some binning must be defined for the Event data. The Distribution of the events to approximate the form of the data would not work without it.
