Instanced stereo and deferred rendering are broken (again) in 5.8:

Editor/build crashes when Instanced Stereo is enabled together with deferred rendering:

  • New VR Template Project

  • Disable forward rendering

  • play in VR
    → crash

  • disable Instanced Stereo

  • play in VR
    → works again
