I think I’ve found one.

The notification file is attached (it’s the one that was originally
causing me problems).

After running GNOME 3.28 for a while, I’ve had several crashes. It used
to crash whenever I opened a URL from Emacs, but fiddling with dconf has
fixed that. It currently crashes every time I run ERC (I’ve turned on
notifications there), and I can’t seem to fix it.
Interestingly, there is a discussion about this on the Arch Linux forums
<https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1778640>. I’m not sure if
there’s anything useful for us in there, though.
I did get a backtrace of the crash.

It looks like GNOME Shell passes some bad icon data into GTK+, which
results in a null filename that gets dereferenced. (GNOME Shell is not
in the backtrace – it tells GTK+ to run this thread from the
“load_texture_async” function in “st-texture-cache.c”.
I think the “bad” user files are not the root cause here. There’s
definitely something wrong with notifications. (I just plugged in a USB
drive and, sure enough, GNOME Shell crashed.) The notification daemon
code is written in JavaScript (“js/ui/notificationDaemon.js”). I
glanced at it and its Git history, but couldn’t find anything.
