I'll close this ticket. I'm failing to reproduce the issue on 2015-ish versions of rakudo, let alone HEAD. I think the actual problem was resolved and hopefully there are tests for it, but trying to find what exactly fixed it is a total waste of time unfortunately. Even with all powers of whateverables this is not going to happen.
Maybe I can try bisecting it manually, but I know that it will just point to a random moar/nqp bump and that will be it. We'd much rather spend time on new SEGV tickets than this one.
