I've installed Emacs snapshot:
GNU Emacs 28.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.5, cairo version 1.16.0)
of 2020-03-08, unofficial emacs-snapshot build:
http://emacs.ganneff.de/, git commit
0a3f8da6e1a56ada409cf1677ac40fcc75a8a33c
and it doesn't coredump for me, so it indeed must be a bug that has been
already fixed in more recent Emacsen.
Thanks,
