When using KICAD to make a PCB, the X sever crashes.
While the segfault is in libfb, it was called by the intel video server,
so I suspect the error there.

Occurred again after starting to continue the work in KICAD.

Dear Maintainer,

I have the same symptoms as the original reporter.  When using the KiCad
PCB layout program pcbnew, the X server repeatedly crashes with a
substantially similar backtrace to the OP.  I am using KiCad compiled
from source, bzr version 5054.  I have reproduced the backtrace here,
as it does not appear in the automatically-attached log.  I am running
a custom kernel for disk-related reasons, but as I am seeing the same
fault as the OP I do not suspect that this is a confounding factor.  I
can likely revert to mainline if that is absolutely necessary.
