I think this should be

  if ((window_outdated (w)
       || !w->window_end_valid
       || !MATRIX_ROW_DISPLAYS_TEXT_P (MATRIX_ROW (w->current_matrix,
						   vpos)))

I'm not sure it will help, because it seems the segfault happens in
the MATRIX_ROW_DISPLAYS_TEXT_P macro.  So I think we are somehow
dealing with w->current_matrix whose 'nrows' is too small.  The
mouse-highlight code detects that case in x_y_to_hpos_vpos.
