backtrace of the crash

Step to reproduce:
1/ open an existing text document
2/ try to select something with the mouse

-> crash.
Backtrace attached.
I get this crash with master build last night.
Version: 4.4.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: e6369973702286d92bfc34ab8305d4a9bcf5c27e)

NB: 
- selection works in the about dialog.
- Ubuntu / Unity does not like the crash, I had difficulty to return to the terminal to continue the gdb session; changing from LO freezed window to the terminal window in the same workspace was impossible. It worked on a second try if I moved first the LO window in another workspace. 


Best regards. JBF

Argh! The issue is more weird than expected (by me): it occurs only if I select a part of the main title of the attached text document.

Step to reproduce:
1/ open the attached text document
2/ try to select something in the title "Guide pour la rédaction d’un mémoire de stage ou de thèse".

-> crash.

Selection works as expected in the body of the text. Works too in Calc and Impress.

Best regards. JBF

According to the bt, I think it's a dup of fdo#82777.
Now don't hesitate to reopen this tracker if I'm wrong.

Thank you Julien, you are surely right. Indeed, if I anchor the frame on the first page to the paragraph, LO does not crash. If I anchor the frame back to the page, the crash comes back.

Best regards. JBF

You're welcome Jean-Baptiste.
Would you mind copy paste your interesting remark on fdo#82777 ?
Indeed, I asked Michael Stahl if he could take a look at it, perhaps your information may help him.
