efreet is not happy. some desktop files seem dodgey. can't say which. it's
marching along but not happy.

the asan log through tells me... problem is in procstats - unload that module
and your crashes should vanish.

i'll try a fix in git - i'm guessing what it might be based on that backtrace
(the 2nd link). btw - if you have crashes..,. please do what you did - build
with asan - get me that asan log. it's actually useful. :)
