==29622==  If you believe this happened as a result of a stack overflow in your
==29622==  program's main thread (unlikely but possible), you can try to increase
==29622==  the size of the main thread stack using the --main-stacksize= flag.
==29622==  The main thread stack size used in this run was 16777216.

I believe that telepathy-mission-control is extremely buggy, but that this particular crash is not its fault. I'm able to avoid the crash by patching dbus-glib - a patch is on the way.
