I can still make it crash:

----------------------------------------------------------------

Using `C-x 3' in `emacs -nw -Q' after evaluating the following code
makes emacs crash:

(set-display-table-slot
 standard-display-table
 'vertical-border
 (let* ((face 'isearch)
        (face-offset (lsh (face-id face) 19)))
   (+ face-offset ?\|)))

(gdb) p face
$1 = (struct face *) 0x0
