Can you install debug information and provide a stack trace?

You can also try running qemu with debug parameters:

qemu ... --global qxl-vga.debug=1 -global qxl-vga.guestdebug=20

it produces huge amount of output, and may be irrelevant (only relevant if it's a driver or driver/host interaction bug) so redirect to some file, i.e.

qemu ... 2>&1 | cat > qemu_crash.log
