Something is wrong then, because in that crash gnome-shell is running
as an X11 client. It's receiving an X11 protocol error from the X
server. These are fun because they're asynchronous, so the backtrace
doesn't actually include enough diagnostic information to do anything
about it. But if it really happens 50% of the time, then hopefully a
developer would be able to reproduce....
He's not the only one saying that, though. See this bug comment:
"Just found out that the frequent crashes only occur in wayland. I
changed to Xorg and so far, I have yet to experience a crash when I
close evolution mail."
