This seems like it was fixed by:

"""
mutter (3.18.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.
    - fix crash when removing monitor/undocking (Closes: #813687)
"""

so I'm reassigning and closing the bug.

In general, if a bug is fixed by upgrading libraries, all programs that
are using those libraries will need to be restarted before the bug will
be fixed. In the case of gnome-shell this means either logging out and
back in, or rebooting.
