Research direction

Reproduce the crash using the reported `run_keybase -g; and keybase oneshot` sequence, then launch `/opt/keybase/Keybase` under X11 and compare the displayed output. Start with the Electron GUI entry point represented by that executable. Done means the GUI no longer crashes or calls functions on a closed renderer window under X11.
