--- Comment #5 from Martin Birgmeier <la5lbtyi at aon.at> ---
I have a question here. Most of the time I am actually running VBoxHeadless, so
there isn't even a visible GUI. What is more, I am running the amd64 client on
an amd64 host with the X11 display (which is not really used because of
VBoxHeadless) redirected to another machine (DISPLAY=othermachine:0), which, as
far as I understand, completely disables GL passthrough.

The i386 client is run on an amd64 host locally (DISPLAY=:0).

On the other hand, the crash also happens when using VirtualBox, i.e., when the
virtual display is actually being displayed.

So, given the above, is it likely that the problem lies with sdl?

Here the outputs of pkg info/pkg query:

[0]# pkg info -r sdl-1.2.15_10,2 
sdl-1.2.15_10,2:
        gegl-0.2.0_19
        virtualbox-ose-5.1.22_1
        qemu-sbruno-2.9.50.g20170707
[0]# pkg query %rn-%rv sdl-1.2.15_10,2
gegl-0.2.0_19
virtualbox-ose-5.1.22_1
qemu-sbruno-2.9.50.g20170707
[0]# pkg info -r sdl2-2.0.5_2         
sdl2-2.0.5_2:
        ffmpeg-3.3.2_1,1
[0]# pkg query %rn-%rv sdl2-2.0.5_2   
ffmpeg-3.3.2_1,1
[0]# 

Given this, might it be better to try downgrading sdl (not sdl2) on the host?
