In my main machine, it does not crash with 2.42.2 and did not crash, either, 
with 2.42.1. However, I just tried on a different machine (also Debian, also 
XMonad as window manager), with 2.42.2, and it crashes.

And it crashes for other people too with other versions of Linux, etc:

So that it does not crash in my main machine might be some happy exception.

Best,
