Package: qemu-system Version: 1.1.0+dfsg-1 Followup-For: Bug #681985 Ok, got the real reproducer. This happened on development machine where I have glibc malloc checking[1] turned on.
$ grep MALLOC ~/.bashrc export MALLOC_CHECK_=3 export MALLOC_PERTURB_=$(($RANDOM % 255 + 1)) Unsetting MALLOC_PERTURB_ makes the bus error go away. Running MALLOC_PERTURB_=120 qemu-system-x86_64 -usbdevice tablet exhibits the problem. AFAIU this indicates the use of uninitialized malloc memory in qemu, but without symbols I cannot dig any further.
