During the today's outage of Facebook I obsereved a crash of host with SIGABRT:
$ host facebook.com
Host facebook.com not found: 2(SERVFAIL)
dighost.c:2626: REQUIRE((__builtin_expect(!!(((query)) != ((void *)0)), 1) && __builtin_expect(!!(((const isc__magic_t *)((query)))->magic == ((('D') << 24 | ('i') << 16 | ('g') << 8 | ('q')))), 1))) failed, back trace

Aborted
However, it does not seem to be reproducible; possibly due to a change of
circumstances in the meantime.
Best wishes
