Yes, this has been reported several times. I don't remember whether
somebody reproduced with the latest Xserver in unstable
(xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-2 or earlier release candidates that
were in experimental before). If you happen to do so, I would be great
to catch a full backtrace with gdb after installing xserver-xorg-core-dbg.

Thanks,
