gdb backtrace of the crash

I got a random crash (SIGSEGV) in gnome-shell running under gdm. I am using gnome-shell 3.26.2-3, Xorg  and GNOME 3.26 on Debian buster. If the below gdb backtrace and the attached full gdb backtrace isn't useful, please close this bug. The core file will be automatically deleted in a week but I can keep it around for longer if needed.

Core was generated by `/usr/bin/gnome-shell'.
Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of  gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
