Okay, this is now fixed upstream:

 https://github.com/MusicPlayerDaemon/MPD/commit/14b3c0f0afe691739cdfc71d71adf740114d5a98

This problem affected only debug builds; this was a false-positive
assertion failure, and my fix just works around this by reordering the
destructor calls.

I was surprised to learn that all Debian packages appear to have
debugging enabled, which adds a lot of unnecessary overhead.
