[Bug 38462] Re: PPC Gnome and xfce applications crash in libgobject-2.0.so.0

[jh]

Using Human (or Tango, that possibly direct from the Gnome site, as I had that in Breezy) causes the crash. Using a more sedate icon theme like Flat-Blue stops all the crashes ... you're probably not going to like the Heisenbug nature of what follows:

**Prior to changing the theme**, I bulit rsvg2-common from source and copied the new svg_loader.so in place of the distro version. This stopped gedit from crashing. However Nautilus still crashed.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Nautilus runs OK with icon theme Flat-Blue. (and the self compiled svg_loader). Haven't tried Flat-Blue and the distro svg_loader.

What would you advise I try next ?
