I tried installing dbgsym packages or using debuginfod to get a full backtrace for libwayland-server.so, but I failed.
$ sudo apt install -qq libwayland-server0-dbgsym Some packages could not be installed.

Sometimes, gnome-shell for a non-active VT starts using 100% CPU. Or, actually 99% CPU because it's doing IPC as well. And the corresponding XWayland uses 40% CPU. FWIW, sending SIGSTOP to either gnome-shell or XWayland stops the other one from busy-looping as well. If I switch back to the affected VT, it appears to function fine, but it is still using 100% + 40% CPU.
