no sorry, debug symbols for KWin are missing, we only see the method it is crashing but not the line of code and the variables.
Looks like memory corruption - there's no QRegion::operator| invocation from ::windowRepaintsPending() Might be a dangeling toplevel pointer, might be sth. entirely different @Marc - Do you use KWin as a tiling WM? - If you get this often or even can reproduce it you could run kwin through valgrind.
