Could I have a backtrace?

The simplest way to get one is perhaps to enable core dumps (before startx
or whatever), if you don't have them already enabled:

ulimit -c 10000 # for example

and then once Ion dumps core (if it really does that), open the core
dump in gdb:

gdb -core the_core_dump_file /somewhere/bin/ion

and type 'backtrace' to the gdb prompt. Make sure you have an unstripped
ion binary that include debugging infos. Ion3 should be unstripped by
default while ion2 is stripped. If the binary is <200k, there's most 
certainly is no debugging info, if it is 1M and above, you have it there.
