While still on 10.9.3 I had the occasional problem of the OS crashing upon wake-up. Every couple of weeks, made more frequent by using an external monitor.
Now on 10.9.4, which was supposed to fix sleep/wake crashes, this has worsened significantly. The frequency is up to about once a day and crashes now occur also during active use with the screen turning black. The OS is still running the background. Pressing the power button, for example, produces a feedback ping, but there's no way to continue working other than a hard reset.
I'm posting this here to find out whether anybody has found a way to combat these debilitating crashes.
System: MacBook Pro Retina 15'', 10.9.4, CPU 2.3 GHZ Intel Core i7, RAM 8GB; 2012 model
The latest crash report of a screen blackout in mid-operations is below.

Seems to me like GPU failure. If the descrete GPU is dead, the these kinds of symptoms appear. If you try to connect an external monitor or use GPU dependent applications, the system will freeze and/or the screen will go black. You have to force shutdown it.
