xscreensaver crashes also in my system.

Debian version: 10.3 (Buster)
xscreensaver version: 5.42+dfsg1-1

My system (a laptop) has 3 screens:
- the original one
- connected via HDMI
- connected via DisplayLink

When using
xscreensaver -nosplash -log /tmp/x.log -verbose &
I did not see the XIO fatal IO error message.
However, the message
"xscreensaver-gl-helper did not report a GL visual!"
repeated once in a while. Whatever it is, it did not cause xscreensaver
to crash.

The crash was not accompanied by any useful information in the logfile.
If someone can advise how to get more information in the logfile, I'll
be happy to help investigate this bug.
