Looks like a different crash, not related to the original bug report.

Not sure if this is the root cause. But given that gnome-shell segfaults
in libGL, it might be related.
What kind of graphics hardware do you have? Which driver do you use?

Please file a new bug report (severity important) with this information
and including the output of glxinfo and your Xorg.0.log

Thanks,
Michael
