Hi, during testing of qemu-kvm-0.14.0 i can reproduce the following segfault. i have seen similar crash already in 0.13.0, but had no time to debug. my guess is that this segfault is related to the threaded vnc server which was introduced in qemu 0.13.0. the bug is only triggerable if a vnc client is attached. it might also be connected to a resolution change in the guest. i have a backtrace attached. the debugger is still running if someone needs more output Reading symbols from /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64...done.
