FWIW it looks like it *has* always been possible to hit this crash by 
allocating a domain and freeing it again without attaching any devices, 
it's just highly improbable for any sane code to do that explicitly, so 
the real latent triggers are failure paths in external callers (which in 
this case are themselves only being reached thanks to my bug elsewhere).
