Unfortunately gnucash was compiled without debug symbols; however, I'm not 
sure whether ./configure --enable-debug would be sufficient to get a gnucash 
with debug symbols. The console output at least tells it has something to do 
with the g_hash_table, whose behaviour was changed in r17747. Could you try 
to compile r17746 (i.e. without that change) and see whether the problem goes 
away? If yes, that commit will be reverted for now and will need further 
testing.
