We're still investigating the issue, but what we noticed yesterday:
1 - Missing android system properties hooks, added with latest hybris upload
2 - It's quite hard to reproduce the crash at the first time, but then
it gets way easier (e.g a crash at every 5 starts)
3 - Crash only happens when starting Unity8 (and you have to start it
at least 40 times to get the first crash)
4 - Also happens when building platform-api, location-service and
libdbus-cpp with 4.8
5 - Happens with android TLS disabled as well
6 - Happens with and without system-compositor
7 - It always crashes in the heap, which makes it quite hard to debug
(useless trace)

It's not that critical as it only crashes when starting unity8, and
not that frequently either, but it's good to get it fixed as well.

In progress.

Also in progress.

We also pushed one additional fix to make pulseaudio to consume way
less cpu now (also blocked, freeze).
