Comment:

 By adding some extra messages in libX11 where the crash was happening I
 could see that two threads were doing simultaneous X communication in the
 crash case. Bad idea.

 Catching the "intruding thread" in gdb lead me to a part of the codebase
 that runs outside of the X lock.

 Fixed in gst-plugins-vmetaxv-0.10.36.3.
