which means we rely on a program which segfaults to determine if

Not sure I understand this. As I said, I also cannot reproduce the issue on my laptop.
And I think that for a graphics lib (which giza is), "open a window, draw something
and see that we exit correctly" is not a perfect, but still useful automated test.
You are right. Disabling a test should be a last resort thing, only to be made
in case we would not be able to determine why the segfault happens.
Since you have asked for a core dump, we are far away from that yet.
The reason I made such suggestion, which I agree it's premature
and not a good idea right now, is that I've had very bad experiences with
other teams (most notably GNOME team) who seem not to care about build failures
which happen outside buildd.debian.org.
Thanks.
