} 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.)

I just sent a backtrace to Pavel Cisler in private email, so I have one
handy.  :)  Here it is:

} 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.

That's good to hear.  I was thinking about trying a GNOME 1.4 beta, but
my system is already too unstable right now.  I'll let the ports
collection people worry about testing 1.4.  :)
