I am experiencing the same issue on an up-to-date Ubuntu 16.04 install.

It seems to happen randomly. Nautilus doesn't launch and gives the error previously reported if launched via command line. A restart fixes it temporarily.

GNOME nautilus 3.14.3
Linux 4.4.0-45-generic

I tried killing/ending the nautilus process and the whole X/unity session froze.
