Nothing stands out, unfortunately. It's not even clear how the
identified source line could crash with a SIGSEGV, assuming that the
source report is accurate.

A strange crash with a moderately deep stack makes me wonder about the
stack size. Since the statically linked version works --- which
suggests that it's not a problem detecting the OS's stack size for the
main thread --- is threading any different with this dynamically linked
version? On some OSes, linking in a way that enables pthread support
causes main() to be called in a new thread, which might have a smaller
stack than the process's initial thread.
