stack trace from the crash

Evolution 2.29.5-2 in current Fedora Rawhide crashes every time I click on a mail with an attachment. My mail is on an IMAP server (the server runs courier-imap).

As abrt seems broken in current Rawhide I had to grab the backtrace myself according to the instructions at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces#Obtaining_a_stack_trace_using_just_GDB - let me know if this is wrong for Evo. I'll attach it. This is 100% reproducible; click a mail with an attachment, watch Evo fall over. Note that mails with attachments aren't actually properly denoted in the message list; I only figured out the common factor between all the mails I knew would cause Evo to crash by looking at them in an older Evo on an F11 machine.

ah, right. I did look for dupes but that one doesn't have a very good summary :/
