There is no stack trace because the crash occurs in generated code. There
is no safety check for the argument of the function call, and since it's
not set, it's presumably NULL or some other invalid value. Upon access by
the function, you get a segfault. At this point, when you are in gdb
(running a binary that has debug symbols), you can use
print v8::internal::Isolate::Current()->PrintStack()
to print the javascript stack trace. I hope this helps.
