Sorry, this stack trace still had some arguments optimised out.  Here is
the stack trace without optimisation:

Attached is a full stack trace with local variables.  I can provide the
core dump privately.

Also note that this happens when the application is under high CPU
pressure (for instance other programs with higher priority are using all
available CPU cores).

The calling code into the lib is here, when capturing from a device:
