That looks like broken OpenGL support in the driver.
Trying the QT_XCB_USE_SOFTWARE_OPENGL workaround that was implemented for
the drivers (like rv200) that don't do OpenGL 2 at all can't hurt. Of course
it will be slower, but at least it shouldn't crash…
(You can try editing /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/10-qt5-check-opengl2.sh to
leave only these lines:
QT_XCB_FORCE_SOFTWARE_OPENGL=1
export QT_XCB_FORCE_SOFTWARE_OPENGL
to set the variable unconditionally.)
