Console output and gdb backtrace around a segfault

Using Plasma 5.5.3 on Mageia Cauldron 64-bit with Qt 5.6.0-beta.

XembedSNIProxy seems to segfault relatively often with (so far) no reliable pattern that I could identify. I've opened a bug report on Mageia's bugzilla about this issue, where I started to do some investigation: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17516

The utility is properly started with plasmashell, but apparently crashes after a short while. Running it again from a terminal seem to show that it's a segmentation fault, though it can happen after quite a long time of normal usage (including legacy icons for hexchat, clementine, Mageia's net_applet and mgaapplet).

I ran it through gdb and just got this crash:

---
kde.xembedsniproxy: trying to dock window  75497483
kde.xembedsniproxy: adding damage watch for  75497483

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

165         if (clientGeom->width > s_embedSize || clientGeom->height > s_embedSize )

And the backtrace:
