Full backtrace

With everything built from source, https://cgit.kde.org/kwin.git/commit/?id=6abd23ed0220b14a4a05fa280869ba3c953565e3 causes KWin to reproducibly crash on launch for me. A full backtrace is attached, and the relevant bits are included below. If I revert that commit, it stops crashing. As it happens, I did a clean build of the entire KDE software stack this morning, so it's not an issue of an outdated build directory somewhere in the stack.

Comment 1 Aleix Pol 2020-04-03 16:21:11 UTC 
I'll look into it. Do you always get the crash? Is it just when starting?
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2020-04-03 16:24:45 UTC 
I always get the crash. By "on launch" I mean, "when I run `kwin_x11`, not "when I start up the computer".
