It's not a mode line: the characters come from a buffer, whereas they
come from strings.  Also, the number of characters is too small for a
mode line, and the beginning doesn't resemble a mode line.

The "vpos=1" part here:

> | #7  0x000000010000f902 in update_window_line (w=0x1020bfbe0, vpos=1, mouse_face_overwritten_p=0x7fff5fbfbdc2) at dispnew.c:3854

means this is the second (zero-based) screen line of some window.  It
looks like a mode spec at the beginning of some Org file:

  #     -*- mode: org -*-

Does that ring any bells?  Can you try recreating that window in a
live session, so we could see what face is #42?

Hmmm, the same number 31 as in the previous crash.  Interesting.

Thanks.
