How did you get the backtrace ?
bt return "No stack"

So you mean try to reproduce the bug with emacs compiled with:
./configure --with-x-toolkit=lucid --without-toolkit-scroll-bars
then with:
./configure --with-x-toolkit=lucid --without-toolkit-scroll-bars --without-gconf
then with:
./configure --with-x-toolkit=lucid --without-toolkit-scroll-bars 
--without-gconf --without-gsettings
then with:
./configure --with-x-toolkit=lucid --without-toolkit-scroll-bars --without-all
