Yes. Ctrl+h b is tied to ido-switch-buffer


(gdb) print byte_stack_list
$1 = (struct byte_stack *) 0x440
(gdb) print stack
$2 = {
  pc = 0x58801d7 "",
  byte_string = 59862065,
  byte_string_start = 0x5880188 "╞\030╟╚        \"\210╞╔╩\217\210\bâ\032",

This says that it crashed when you invoked ido-switch-buffer.  Is that

What does this command display?

 (gdb) print byte_stack_list

My crystal ball says the value is zero (i.e. a NULL pointer).

Also, please show the result of this:

 (gdb) print stack
