You see this in "emacs -Q" as well?

This part of the backtrace:

seems to indicate that the reason for the problem is some kind of X
error, which then causes Emacs to shut down.

Po Lu, any ideas what this could mean?

Also, your build is several days old, so perhaps you could update from
Git and see if the problem was already fixed meanwhile.
