That's a bug, and while I likely can't fix it (will gladly look),
we'll
need your dmesg and the backtrace from the coredump, in the least.
I believe Xorg -configure has been useless for a long time.
With a hardware that just works, X just works. If a xorg.conf is needed
(as when e.g. using vesa instead of a misbehaving driver),
it is easier to write a simple one from xorg.conf(5) by hand.

This is one way of looking at it, yes. However, the quality of the
produced xorg.conf.new is fine.
