Actually, just starting Emacs crashes in the same way. Note that the
crash is in functions from frame.el and faces.el.
I think this is somehow related to the situation that an Emacs which
has a native-compiled preloaded files in its pdumper file (and thus
loads them at startup) is used to native-compile those preloaded files
(in the case above, faces.el and frame.el). This needs to overwrite
the .eln files loaded into the running process, and I think this
causes some trouble on Windows. I will have to try to recreate this
and see what happens with the old and the new .eln files in such
cases.
For now, I just removed all the *.eln files and emacs.exe, and then
recompiled the *.el files and redumped Emacs. As result, Emacs no
longer crashes on startup.
