eog uses a progressive loader that displays bits of the file as it reads it. Thus it shows some of the file before aborting.

gthumb reads the whole file first before displaying. Thus it fails before displaying. gimp does the same.

Anyway, there is no proper way to handle corrupt files. This isn't a bug, and it won't be fixed.
