Could you repeat your test with MALLOC_CHECK_=2 set in the environment (yes, the trailing underscore is deliberate)? Unfortunately the stack trace you provided indicates that the damage was done before the program actually managed to crash, and so we can't tell what happened; MALLOC_CHECK_=2 ought to encourage it to crash earlier so that we can see the actual problem.
