Public bug reported: There's a data race in libxcb1_1.10-2ubuntu1_amd64 which is reproduced when running Virtualbox with 3D acceleration enabled. This bug relates to Bug #1179617. Below is stack trace of this data race. This bug was fixed by upstream three years ago but it hasn't merged into our code. I have patched my library and Virtualbox haven't crashed since then.
Fix: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xcb/libxcb/commit/?id=be0fe56c3bcad5124dcc6c47a2fad01acd16f71a [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1". Core was generated by `/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox --startvm Windows 10'.
