Nevermind, this seems to be a Schrödingbug. I have the exact same 
problem with the pre-existing Xlib X11 video output plugin. VLC 
segfaults if the video output is quickly resized. In fact, that path is 
seldom triggered, as down scaling is most often hidden from the video 
output core through hardware acceleration (XVideo in this case).

But that does mean that the current video output core resize support is 
completely broken (or perhaps libavcodec is).
