Does one particular image trigger this crash? If so, please attach it to this bug report or email it to mjc@avtechpulse.com. - Mike
Judging from the stack trace, this appears to be a bug in libexif. So this would be a duplicate of bug #391004. See also GIMP bug #358117 (comment 12), which mentions that the problem has already been reported to the libexif maintainers in July 2006.
Some of the other bug reports found in the following query have sample images attached to them (e.g., bug #428037) http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?query=meta-status%3Aall+%22exif_set_sshort%22+%22exif_set_short%22 So I don't think that it is necessary to keep this bug report open. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 391004 ***
