No really, this just shows that something else is wrong here. Maybe fixed the bug in Qt then. But doing this kind of hit-and-run patching, blindly trying to workaround a bug is really bad as it greatly increases the maintenance cost.

Could you please ensure that no threads are involved? Add stuff like Q_ASSERT(QThread::currentThread() == thread()) to the dtor of the class.
If that does not help, then certainly there is a bug elsewhere, maybe inside Qt, and should be fixed there then.

I had another of those crashes after heavier-than-usual perusal of the toolview, despite the previous patch. The attached patch replaces all `delete`s of `QObject` derived class instances with `deleteLater()`.
