I did the following to fix it:

1) created new user
2) logged in to gnome with this user
3) gnome crashed
4) remove the gtk-qt theme as described in the other bug (actually removed whole kde
by apt-get remove kdelibs)
5) deleted all gnome folders (.gnome, .gconf, ...) - simply all that were created after 2)
6) logged in to gnome again
7) gnome started OK

I do not remember exactly if I changed the default theme in KDE, it is quite possible

Hope it helps."

Sounds like a bug in the gtk-qt theme then.

Maybe somebody could report the bug to the GTK-Qt developers?

You have to start Nautilus in a terminal with

  GTK_QT_ENGINE_DEBUG=1 nautilus

to get debugging output, and copy & paste the last few lines.
