This is probably the core of the problem. While exiting GnuCash tries to save each open report. 
For some reason this fails on your system causing the error above. This error is fatal and will 
abort gnucash prematurely.

The procedure being called is gnc:report-serialize. This procedure was introduced in GnuCash 
2.6.2. So as Derek already suggests your system seems to be mixing code from two versions 
of GnuCash.
