Do you use glib 2.17.3?
I see strange crashes too with it (Nautilus won't even start, it just always segfaults) on Ubuntu Ibex after the last update. Bringing glib back to 2.17.2 works fine here, so it might be a glib problem.

Sebastien Bacher on IRC told me the crashes I'm experiencing are a GLib 2.17.3 upstream bug [1]. So if you're using that version too, it's very likely you're hitting that bug as well.

Yes, this is with glib 2.17.3. Could be that crash.

Do you have the chance to test if the patch linked in my previous comment solves the bug for you?
