Confirmed on Hardy, but there is also a way to reverse it. Details:

On a fresh install the .xcf files are associated with Gimp. If you
right-click on a .xcf file in nautilus you are offered the option of
opening the file with Gimp or 'Other application'. If you select Other
and then eog, eog will try and fail to load it. Any time you then click
on a .xcf file nautilus will try to launch eog and fail. "image viewer"
(eog) is now the top choice in the context menu and the default. There
is no obvious way to change the default back.

To change the default back to Gimp, go to properties for the file and
select the 'Open with' tab. I'll close this bug, since it does take a
few odd steps to get into this position and since there is a GUI way to
reverse it.

** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low
       Status: New => Invalid
