Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

It only occurs after the latest xorg upgrade available today.

Steps:
1. Run gnome-terminal (or xfce4-terminal)
2. Maximize it
3. Ctrl-Shift-T
4. segfault

No problem if not maximized.
Running {xfce4,gnome}-terminal --geometry=80x25 also crashes.

I don't know what packages I need to install to generate a correct stacktrace.
sltam@elm:~$ gdb xfce4-terminal
...
(gdb) r
...
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
