Oh, maybe I should have mentioned that on one occasion where the bug happened,
I managed to switch to a TTY just before the system became frozen, but then the
CapsLock LED started blinking, indicating a kernel panic indeed.

It *does* look like a low-level problem, but although I do use a lot of
demanding applications (browser with several multi-MB pages opened in dozens of
tabs, plus video player, plus vector graphics, etc.), *only* okular caused a
system crash (and it even reproduces it when no other app has been running
before).

I do have updated my system recently, and it seems to have caused the bug. 
I've reported the bug at Fedora's as well, hopefully they'll have more insight:

I have never used valgrind before, so if you guys could give me a hand and tell
me exactly what I'm looking for and how to obtain a helpful log, that would be
much appreciated!
