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.
