I built app-admin/conky-1.10.7 with:
USE="X iconv iostats ipv6 math ncurses portmon pulseaudio systemd truetype vim-syntax wifi -apcupsd (-audacious) -cmus -curl -eve -hddtemp -ical -imlib -irc -lua-cairo -lua-imlib -lua-rsvg -moc -mpd -mysql -nano-syntax -nvidia -rss -thinkpad -weather-metar -weather-xoap -webserver -xmms2"

I have this two lines in $HOME/.config/conky/conky.conf:
conky.config = { out_to_x = false, out_to_console = true, }
conky.text = [[ [{"full_text":"${time %H:%M:%S}"}], ]];

Running `conky` gives: Segmentation fault (core dumped) 

The previous version, app-admin/conky-1.10.4, works just fine. 
The issue seems to be caused by `out_to_x = false` as setting it to `true` makes it works as expected. Setting it `true`, launching `conky` and setting it back to `false` (and let conky reload the configuration by itself) made it works too.

Fixed in GIT. Thanks for the report.
