MacPorts’ trac would still be a good place to report this.

I am not familiar with these tools (mainly since I have not needed to use
them yet), however my impression is that (1) they are not very useful for
certain “release“ builds which do not have debugging symbols to begin with,
and/or (2) they are only needed for a debug build where symbols have been
stripped.

I do not know whether rebuilding the relevant qt511 ports with the +debug
variant enabled works or will help get a more useful crash report, but that
is what I would suggest trying next.
