Description Till Maas 2018-07-03 17:05:12 UTC 
Description of problem:
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/04958cbaf25eea27eceedaa987adfb354ad5f7fd#diff-5f003dd283d1160d6036220cbec44dd9R129 fails to initialize beval->vts, therefore vim crashes regularly:

#0  0x00007ffff6a7eb5d in free () from /lib64/libc.so.6                                
#1  0x00005555555aec4b in get_beval_info (beval=0x55555605c140, getword=1, winp=0x7fffffffce80, lnump=<optimized out>, textp=0x7fffffffce90, colp=0x7fffffffce7c) at beval.c:129
#2  0x00005555555aee63 in general_beval_cb (beval=0x55555605c140, state=state@entry=0) at beval.c:215
#3  0x00005555556044cd in check_due_timer () at ex_cmds2.c:1426      
[...]

This is fixed upstream with:
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/ca4b613c692b927c9345dc9e3d6be5de35266be2

It would be great to include this fix ASAP in a new update since the older update  with this bug was pushed without enough testing in a very short amount of time in F28. The F27 update could still be stopped.
