I can confirm that in an Ubuntu MATE 24.04 VMware VM with "Accelerate 3D
graphics" disabled, the version currently in noble-proposed fixes the
issue. Same with Xubuntu 24.04.

`gst-inspect-1.0` no longer crashes when I have xserver-xorg-core
version 2:21.1.12-1ubuntu1.3 from noble-proposed installed.

Testing performed with Ubuntu MATE:

- Create a VMware VM, make sure "Accelerate 3D graphics" is disabled
- Install Ubuntu MATE 24.04.2 from ISO, check all the boxes for optional stuff 
when installing it
- Fully update it with `sudo apt update; sudo apt dist-upgrade`
- `sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-tools`
- Confirm the crash is still happening: `gst-inspect-1.0`
- Enable -proposed, then `sudo apt update`
- `sudo apt install xserver-xorg-core/noble-proposed`
- Reboot
- Confirm it doesn't crash anymore: `gst-inspect-1.0`

Testing performed with Xubuntu:

- Create a VMware VM, make sure "Accelerate 3D graphics" is disabled
- Install Xubuntu 24.04.2 from ISO, check all the boxes for optional stuff when 
installing it
- Fully update it with `sudo apt update; sudo apt dist-upgrade`
- Confirm the crash is still happening: the first time you try to log in after 
rebooting, it crashes back to the login screen, and then subsequent login 
attempts work fine
- Enable -proposed, then `sudo apt update`
- `sudo apt install xserver-xorg-core/noble-proposed`
- Reboot
- Confirm that the first login attempt always works now
