The crash indicates some driver issue, probably in Mesa.  Since GNOME
is increasingly hardware accelerated, you tend to notice them in a lot
of places.  You can twiddle the GSK_RENDERER environment variable to
something less buggy, potentially at the cost of performance. 
Particularly the cairo one ought to do slow, but correct CPU rendering.


Cheers
