When you created the file on Windows, did you enter opening balances in the setup assistant ?

In the past this used to insert invalid dates in your data file. I *thought* it was fixed but 
perhaps it has resurfaced.

In any case can you post the trace file [1] gnucash generates on Windows ? There are probably 
several by now. Be sure to post one that was generated while gnucash crashed. You can do this 
by deleting all the existing trace files, try to open your data file and then post the single trace 
file that is now generated.

This trace file may have more information as to what is going on.
