bug#54629: 29.0.50; Emacs crashes when I try to move scroll bar by grabbing it with mouse

[Eric Spero via "Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors" <bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org>]

Ok, here are the steps I took.

1. gdb /usr/bin/emacs
2. run -Q
3. [try to pull scroll bar down]
4. bt

gdb produced a bit output after I tried to pull the scroll bar down, starting at "Fatal error 6: Aborted".

Please let me know if I've done anything wrong, or if there is anything else I can provide.

Eric
