I really doubt it's a libc bug, it is more likely a bug in a video
decoding library. Could you please tell me which video card are you
using (output of the 'lspci' command is fine) and what is the version
of the 'libdrm-intel1' package installed on your system? Also the file
'/var/log/Xorg.0.log' might contains some information about why the X
server crashes.
