So I changed the PKGBUILD to include the mentioned patch, built & installed it and didn't observe a crash after testing!
Otherwise I can confirm this bug.

Hi, thanks for raising that bug.

I reached out to upstream to see if a new `girara` release including the fix is planned, they responded they can prepare a release next weekend: https://git.pwmt.org/pwmt/girara/-/issues/17#note_2023
Regarding the medium severity of that (upstream) bug, I'd rather wait for that new fixed upstream release than patching the current release on Arch side. I'll package the upcoming new `girara` release as soon as possible in [community-testing].

(For what it's worth, downgrading `glib2` in the mean time seems to work: https://git.pwmt.org/pwmt/girara/-/issues/17#note_2019)
