[Evolution] Bug#502509: evolution: reproducibly segfaults in Edit->Preferences->Accounts Editor

Package: evolution
Version: 2.22.3.1-1
Severity: important

Go to Edit->Preferences, then start Accout Editor by double-clicking
an account (an IMAP account in my case). Sequentially click on all
tabs from the first one "Identity" to the last one "IMAP Headers".
Press "OK" button. Evolution will segfault.

Below is the gdb log. I have installed the corresponding *-dbg
package, but it does not seem to help much with the backtrace.
