Note https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=400626#c48 in particular, which explains why the stack in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118396 (marked as a duplicate of the WebKit bug with the fix) is not the same as the stack in this report. I don't think that we know for sure that the upstream change will fix this issue, but the theory is that it's the underlying problem that leads to this report's crash since it was in the dump from gdb.
