I suspect this crash is related to fonts installed on your system.
(It doesn't crash on my system, FWIW.)  The documentation of this
variable includes a few non-ASCII strings, and I'm guessing Emacs
crashes trying to display one of them.

Unfortunately, your Emacs binary seems to be stripped, so the
backtrace is not useful, and I have no way of confirming my guess.
