I suspect that the way you started Emacs actually ran the installed
executable of Emacs, without the patch.  Can you verify which
executable file is being run?  One way to be sure is to try this
command after you attach to a running Emacs:

  (gdb) break gui_define_fringe_bitmap

If this says the function gui_define_fringe_bitmap is not defined, you
are running the old unpatched executable.

If the executable being run is the patched one, from the Emacs's src/
directory, and it still crashes, then please set a breakpoint in this
part of xterm.c, on the indicated line:

      if (!fringe_bmp[p->which])  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
        {
          /* This fringe bitmap is known to fringe.c, but lacks the
             cairo_pattern_t pattern which shadows that bitmap.  This
             is typical to define-fringe-bitmap being called when the
             selected frame was not a GUI frame, for example, when
             packages that define fringe bitmaps are loaded by a
             daemon Emacs.  Create the missing pattern now.  */
          gui_define_fringe_bitmap (f, p->which);
        }
      x_cr_draw_image (f, gc, fringe_bmp[p->which], 0, p->dh,
                       p->wd, p->h, p->x, p->y, p->overlay_p);

and step through this code with a debugger, one line at a time.  When
fringe_bmp[p->which] is NULL pointer (zero), the code should call
gui_define_fringe_bitmap, and when that call returns,
fringe_bmp[p->which] should no longer be zero.
