Does it happen with all visualizer plugins or with just one particular?
Could you please install xbmc-dbg and libav-dbg to have both XBMC and
Libav debug symbols as well when creating coredumps?

>From the logs it looks like a memory handling problem.
Could you please run xbmc in Valgrind like and collect the errors?:
valgrind valgrind --trace-children=yes -- xbmc

Cheers,
Balint
