Which should never happen.

Unlikely.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is not a good sign: you have edited your sources after the Emacs
binary was produced, so some of the information in the backtrace and
the GDB session might be inaccurate or even incorrect.

Do you use face-remapping? Is face-remapping-alist non-nil when this
happens? If so, can you show the value of Vface_remapping_alist?

I recommend against using -O3 to build Emacs: at the very least it
makes debugging much harder. More importantly, with latest GCC
versions it could produce invalid code (a.k.a. "GCC bugs"). The
default optimization level -O2 should be more than enough. (I'm not
saying this has anything to do with the segfaults.)
