Describing a backtrace doesn't do us any good.  Please include the full
backtrace (i.e. output of bt full) with full debugging symbols.  If
Nautilus works as root, perhaps you installed your ports with the wrong
umask, and normal users can't access some system files.

Sounds like a missing library.

Look on the console of in ~/.xsession-errors for anything that looks
suspicious.  Also, try creating a dummy gnome account, and see if it
gets the same crashes.
