Comment(by vbraun):

 The latest version of the libGAP patch now properly holds references to
 the GAP memory objects and releases them during `GapElement.__deref__`. No
 more random crashes because the GAP memory manager (GASMAN) recycles the
 Gap objects that Sage still references!

 I feel this is now stable enough for wider testing. I can't crash it any
 more :-) Please give it a whirl and let me know if you manage to segfault
 it!
