375.82 has been in sid/buster for months now, it's very strange that it
wasn't reported before - a GLX crash is not a subtle problem that might
get overlooked


Yup but not sure people use a Pascal GPU. What is granted is that the issue
appeared after last update to stretch-proposed-updates, but only on my box
with a Pascal GPU.

I suspect the code paths used are not the same per GPU...

If you wish I can send you my sources.list, my /etc and the list of
installed packages. I do not have weird things, only additional repos for
marginal packages like deb-multimedia or virtualbox.
