compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >::basic_string() from unity::launcher::HudLauncherIcon::HudLauncherIcon()

The crash seem to be related to HUD activation-deactivation. AFAIR, Compiz charshed when I tried to activate-reactive (i.e. pressing ALT) HUD in Mozilla Thunderbird Create Message window.
