I would just run GDB on the dumped core, and run “bt” there (apologies
if that info is already in the GitLab issue, I didn’t see it.)

There’s now an lldb backtrace at 

https://gitlab.com/marnen/lilypond-mac-builder/issues/16#note_317315811 .  Hopefully it’s somewhat useful?   

Note that this is from a second affected user, who said that the issue went away for him after he reinstalled macOS (Catalina, FWIW).

Best,
