Sebastien, I removed the 'file:///Session=default' line, but it made no difference. In desperation, I removed the whole .gtk-bookmarks file, and the problem has gone. How or why, I don't know. There was no visible corruption (or unprintables) in the file. But everything is back to normal now.
Surely this is a pretty serious defect in GTK? I mean, software shouldn't segfault because it doesn't like the look of a bookmark file! Pretty weak. As an IT pro seeking to move clients across to OSS, this gives me the shivers. Anyway, probably not your issue, but I would hope that a distro as popular as Ubuntu would be able to exert some influence on the relevant team to get mile-wide bugs like this repaired quickly... I'm only sorry that I don't personally have the time or skills to address this bug at source. You can close this now. But please open a high-priority bug with GTK for me...! Thanks for all your help.
