In this case it should be enough to install the debug packages and not
use NoTrapSignals, because then the backtrace should appear in
Xorg.0.log (like the one you posted in the tarball). Anyway thanks for
the notice about /var/lib/gdm3/core, the documentation should probably
be updated.

Thanks, these backtraces help a lot. This looks similar to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=649231
and https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43893 so I will
reassign the bug to libdrm.
