So it's crashing in libx264 asm mbtree (macroblock_tree) code.

There was a fix in this area recently. Which version of x264 do you have?
If it's before x264-20221028 then try updating first. I don't think
there's worth looking further until that is confirmed.

If that doesn't help, there's a good chance that building x264 with
--disable-asm will work around the problem, but will be slow.

FWIW upstream's issue tracker is at 
https://code.videolan.org/videolan/x264/-/issues
but better rebuild at least x264 if not also ffmpeg with DEBUG=-g and
try for a better backtrace.
