Reproduced on merulo, got a core file, unfortunately no glib debug
symbols yet so this isn't as useful as it could be:

(gdb) bt full
#0  0x20000000007984c1 in g_type_fundamental ()
   from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0
No symbol table info available.
#1  0x2000000000764cf0 in g_object_new_valist ()
   from /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0
No symbol table info available.
#2  0x400000000000d000 in tp_tests_object_new_static_class (type=125984)
    at util.c:267
No locals.
#3  0x4000000000007d10 in setup (test=0x60000000000203e0, 
    data=0x600000000001ec20) at connection-balance.c:245
        error = 0x3b
        features = {59, 0}
        __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ = "setup"
#4  0x2000000000909b00 in ?? () from /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0
No symbol table info available.

I'll follow up if I get a bt with symbols.

Cheers,
