Unfortunately we've tried "G_DEBUG=fatal_warnings" before (you suggested
it back in comment:4) but I did manage to figure out a couple of things
since last time:

The crash I originally observed (back in comment:6) only occurs on the
very first run of totem. All subsequent runs (even after a reboot) fail
to crash (which makes me suspect the crash is a result of something
that's missing on that first run ... maybe something that gets written
to the user's home-dir or cache or something? I should try deleting
~/.cache and see what happens). All subsequent runs still display the
issue described in the bug (that the video won't play with "the
specified movie could not be found" error) but don't actually crash.
That also makes me suspect that the crash might not be related to the
issue of the movie not playing.

Nonetheless, once I had the ability to reliably reproduce the crash
(albeit with the annoyance of having to re-flash the card each time), I
did manage to get totem to crash with the totem-dbgsym (and
libtotem0-dbgsym, and libgstreamer1.0-0-dbgsym, and basically any other
vaguely related -dbgsym I could think of) installed. Unfortunately the
results were ... not exactly useful:

Here's another OOPS report which *did* get a partial stacktrace, but
unfortunately I'd forgotten to install the -dbgsym package on this one
(was kicking myself after realizing I had to re-flash the card
*again*!):

Sorry these probably aren't much use in shedding any further light on
the problem! On the other hand, the fact the crash doesn't occur after
the first run makes me think that perhaps I'm barking up the wrong tree
here (that the crash is distinct from the failure to play the video
file).
