I did more testing, and I only had to drag the mouse once. AFAICT,
it's not the multiple highlighting that is causing this crash, but
rather dragging the mouse upward (by pressing and holding the
left-button) while trying to position cursor on an Arabic line that
starts with L2R characters embedded in an R2L context (like the 2nd
line in the testcase).
For instance, if I have the following content in the middle of a
buffer:
a abcdef
Emacs crashes when dragging the mouse from any point below while
moving upward to position cursor between "abcdef".
Moreover, this crash seems specific to Arabic and reordered Latin text
using RLM (like the above example). I couldn't reproduce this using
Hebrew.

Did you mean "p *bidi_it"? (sorry, I'm not familiar with what "pr" is
and it returned an error). Here is the output of both commands anyway
using the earlier testcase.
Thanks.

The program being debugged was signaled while in a function called from GDB.
GDB remains in the frame where the signal was received.
To change this behavior use "set unwindonsignal on".
Evaluation of the expression containing the function
(debug_print) will be abandoned.
When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop.
