Put the files on google drive or one of the many pastebin-like sites
or dropbox or ...

Include a package list, too.

I had issue with the cairo update to 1.12 - the instant I started a
gnome app (say seahorse, for instance - anything that used cairo I
think), Xorg died with either signal 6 or 11 - sounds a lot like your
symptoms.  This was with intel 945G, 8-stable and old xorg, however.
If you run gnome as your windowing session, this probably isn't it
since it would die as soon as gnome-session started.  If not, then try
downgrading cairo to the 1.10 version before the 1.12 update
(committed Sep 12) and report back.
