Brainstorming for a minute - only half-facetiously:

Inasmuch as fuel is the common link in BA038, 2 or 4 or 6 or 8 engines would be equally vulnerable.

The obvious answer is a dual-fueled engine - a few minutes' supply of hydrogen (or methane) under pressure would at least allow you to pick a better crash site.
