Core dumped

[Guillaume Fraysse]

Hello list,

I have been using gnucash happily for several years but it won't start
these days. It seems to be since I upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial (64
bits). Version I used is 2.6.12. I get a core dumped each time I start
using my work file, it starts fine otherwise.

Here is a backtrace :

Any idea is welcome.
