It turned out that the cause of this was a corrupt QML cache, and
running

rm -r /home/phablet/.cache/QML/Apps/dialer-app/

fixed the problem. So, seems like there are two underlying bugs here:

- the QML cache was corrupted
- a corrupt QML cache resulted in a crash (rather than eg detecting corruption 
and clearing the cache)

I don't know if either of these are specific to dialer-app or are
system-wide problems that happened to be triggered on dialer-app.
Unfortunately I didn't keep a copy of the corrupt cache for debugging :(

PS Thanks to Pat McGowan on the Ubuntu Phone mailing list for suggesting
it might be a corrupt cache!
