Since the crashes seem to be happening when the swapped buffers are subsequently
displayed, how about trying different font backends, for example:
emacs -Q -xrm Emacs.fontBackend:x
Not sure what font backend the user on NetBSD/powerpc was using, but there might
be something that the xft font backend does that buffer-swap-text is relying on
which the w32 and one of the x font backends are not doing correctly.
