With a backtrace we can probably debug this easily. A NULL pixbuf should be
simple to track down. Without a backtrace, I have no immediate guesses. Do
you know how to use gdb to get a backtrace? (Feel free to visit #nautilus on
GIMPnet -- people there would be happy to help you get a backtrace.)

With or without the backtrace (hopefully with), a report at
bugzilla.eazel.com will help us track this and not lose track. It is our
goal to at least start up on FreeBSD for GNOME 1.4, so if this is not just
something wrong on your system, then we want to get it fixed right away.
