Hi Ravi,

thanks for reporting, how did you produce the stack trace?  I ask
because without function names in it is not very useful.

Here we have some information on how to process backtraces when Emacs
crashes [1] and here [2] some info on how to run Emacs under gdb (and
produce the backtrace there).

Probably debugging Emacs under gdb would be the best option here.

Thanks

  Andrea
