Systematically crash!

Dear gnucash users,

I'd very much like some help to find out why my gnucash version 
suddently started to systematically crash as soon as I try to open an 
account (from an old-created file or a new file) or try to show various 
views or initiate various actions. I can basically not do anything with 
gnucash any more. It opens correctly, but then, as soon as I trigger 
some action such as opening an account, it just exists without error 
message or displaying anything on the console. I have successfully used 
gnucash a few months ago without problems, but had not used it for quite 
a long time before re-starting it today, and I do not know what change I 
made in the meantime to my system that had that result on gnucash.

Is there some way to know what is happening?

You will find attached a log produced with
-~$gnucash --debug --extra --logto crash.log
and with the following actions: I clicked on "close" on the Tips window, 
waiting for gnucash to complete starting, answered Yes to the question 
whether gnucash should open my usual accounting file, considering that 
it is locked (because it was still locked from a previous crash), then 
double-clicked on the account "Revenus", which made gnucash crash. I 
guess that it is indeed crashed and not simply have its window hidden or 
something similar because:
-~#ps ax | grep [c]as
yields no results.

When starting from console, gnucash says:
-----
-~$gnucash
gnc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disabled at 
configure time.

Found Finance::Quote version 1.13

My gnucash version, running on debian stable, is:
-----
~$gnucash --version
gnc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disabled at 
configure time.

GnuCash 2.2.6
Compilé le 2008-08-28 depuis r17427
-----
(I know that is not the latest version but updating to a more recent 
version would require me to switch plenty of libraries out of debian 
stable, which I'd like to avoid if possible.)

Thank you for any help or pointer!
Olivier
