Many bugs reported against xserver-xorg-video-nouveau are actually
kernel bugs or bugs in the 3D driver (package libgl1-mesa-dri).  But not
this one, it seems.

They obviously don't want to deal with outdated distribution packages
(like the ones in Debian stable), but we're shipping the latest versions
of libdrm and the X driver in testing and unstable, and we're not
patching them.

Yes, your latest backtrace looks very similar to the one reported
originally in #688082.
