I got same crash. Found similar errors in syslog:

============================

============================

I was moving files between disks, for more details, I run 'nautilus' from terminal, so I got more information:

============================
sys:1: Warning: GError set over the top of a previous GError or uninitialized memory.
This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL before it's set.
The overwriting error message was: Error removing file: Permission denied
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
============================

So, for me, it because the source file cannot be deleted for permission reason, but anyway, the nautilus shouldn't crash, it should report the permission problem.
