I have noticed this, also, that the last few lines of the backtrace are often incorrect, and that the cause might be elsewhere. Maybe this is the real effect of a 'stack corruption', and we are seeing it. Several times recently gdb has reported a segfault in fill-style.cpp, when I -know- that it is not there at all.

You mean, it's crashing with this patch but is OK without it?
I can't test because I get this when trying to compile with your patch:
make: *** No rule to make target `widgets/document-tree-model.cpp', needed by `widgets/document-tree-model.o'. Stop.
Anyway, all I can say is that this seems to me somewhat similar to what we had on Windows recently - misleading tracebacks, sigc connection crashes etc. Maybe some problem with boehm again. Just a guess.
