Looks like a use-after-free. Also, you're not using XQuartz libraries in aterm. It looks like you're using MacPorts libraries. You might be using the XQuartz server, but that's not really the issue.
Since you're using MacPorts libraries, I can't symbolicate the .. since you're seeing this after updating XQuartz, that points to a change in libxcb. Someone else reported the same signature within the past couple months as well. I suggest you file a bug report at http://bugs.freedesktop.org, and I'll try to look into it as well when I get some cycles.
Is it 100% reproducible with aterm, or does it just happen some times? If reproducible, what are the steps? Unfortunately, the report just indicates that something modified the object after is was freed and doesn't indicate where or when. We'd need malloc stack logging or an instruments allocation trace to see who previously used that address.
Thanks,
Jeremy
