Comment (by pbennett):

 == Exit from frontend causes a SEGFAULT ==
 The destructor for the main window hits a segfault due to a null pointer,
 many levels deep in the destructor of QWidget. The destructor is not
 called twice. I cannot find a solution, so the workaround for now is
 bypass that on Android. This leaves a memory leak which is preferable to a
 Seg Fault. Note that even with bypassing the destructor, the Android log
 still contains messages about the window having died. See attached patch
 for the workaround (20180227_1059_android_segfault_workaround.patch). Next
 step in fixing this is to implement the correct Android method of closing
 an application, which may avoid the problem.
