My guess is a rare race condition, on the other hand this is reported against a developer version of nautilus. Could anyone reproduce this issue in a stable release?

A double click on the 'home' folder icon causes nautilus to crash. Am also having problems with Compiz because of some kind of nvidia driver issue, so this could be side effect.

The bug is quite old and the code changed since, also there has been no new report of that specific problem nor activity for some years so assuming it has been resolved and closing the ticket. If you still get issues in newer versions feel free to open a new report though.
