Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

In general: Without a stack trace from the crash it's very hard to determine what caused it. Can you get us a stack trace? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!

In this case: This is a Debian specific problem, see bug 440988. Please install updates provided by Debian.
