Since your backtrace is just junk (memory totally obliterated) and the
problem happens for all apps at startup, it points pretty strongly to
a library incompatibility - somehow your libraries are not binary
compatible with the header files used to compile the applications.

The best way to diagnose this is to think hard about what you might
have recompiled or reinstalled just before the problem
started. Alternatively, try removing everything and reinstalling it...

Of course there are other things that could be the problem, but this
would be my best guess.
