Here's the strace https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23134/strace.log

pardon the personal dropbox, but I don't see a way to attach a file to my post.

OK, so after all this I found out there was a corrupt .avi file on my desktop. Opening it crashed X, so I just went ahead and got rid of that. Gwenview is fine now.

Great to see you figured it out :)
