Maybe post that binary and a corresponding core dump somewhere, so
somebody else can load those in a debugger?  Or let your favorite crash
reporting tool (catchsegv or any of the Linux built-in crash reporters)
generate a full report, and post it in the PR?

In any case, you could try the following.  Make sure the gdb package is
installed, then run:

  gdb /opt/ungoogled-chromium/chrome

When gdb is finished loading the executable, type "run", and wait until
the program crashes.  Then execute the following gdb commands:

  bt full
  info registers
  disassemble

and post the full output of those commands in the PR.
