Here, I was scrolling inside an Org buffer, with code blocks and native
fontification (`org-src-fontify-natively' set to `t').

I have the impression I was on the border of a code block (not yet visible),
hence it certainly invoking some fontification mechanism.

I was attached to the process already before the crash, and this is the recent
history in GDB:
