I've had the same problem, and here is my stderr output at the time of the crash:

In addition, I was capturing all stdout when running with the --debug option, and this was the last thing to log before the crash:

I went back into the log file I captured, and in every instance of updating "Tomboy Note Indexer" was always followed by a chat updater:

[Debug 10:00:09.341] [UniverseManager] Reloading item source "Tomboy Note Indexer"...
[Debug 10:00:10.763] [UniverseManager] Reloading item source "Source: Recent Chats"...

I have since disabled the Pidgin Plugin, because the crash was most likely caused by the Pidgin or Skype plugins. Although I initially expected Skype to be the culprit, it seems that Pidgin was the offender. I haven't had a crash since I stopped using the Pidgin plugin.
