I got the same problem, with the same workaround, today just after
upgrading Mozilla Firefox to v18.0. I had a hard time solving the
problem.

Symptoms:
  * Anything linked to libgio-2.0 do segfault.
  * cannot login using xfce4-session or gnome-session
  * dbus not working either
  * using xinit and then opera, I could still use internet!

Workaround:
  rm ~/.local/share/mime/mime.cache

Log:
$ cat /var/log/kern.log | tail -1
