Description

As posted here: Pi4 RetroArch xmb segmentation fault with any Overlay bezel on -- only Pi 4/400 xmb fails on content quit with any overlay on (fine when off), while Intel Linux runs the same content out of xmb without issue.

Tested and fails since v1.10.1

Research direction

Start by reproducing the segmentation fault on a Pi 4 or Pi 400 in the XMB frontend when quitting content with any overlay bezel enabled, using the forum report and the behavior described for v1.10.1. Compare the same content and overlay flow on Intel Linux; done means quitting no longer crashes on the affected Pi systems while overlays remain enabled.
