I've had a similar problem. Since I'm not sure if this list
accepts attachments, I won't attach an example of the
crash log in Library/Logs/CrashReporter. The basic idea seems to be
that GIMP cannot find X11:
Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: /usr/X11/lib/libXrender.1.dylib
Referenced from: /tmp/skl/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gimp-2.6
Reason: image not found

<B536F2F1-9DF1-3B6C-1C2C-9075EA219A06> /usr/lib/dyld
System Profile:
Model: MacPro4,1, BootROM MP41.0081.B08, 8 processors, Quad-Core Intel
Xeon, 2.26 GHz, 16 GB, SMC 1.39f5
Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 4870, ATI Radeon HD 4870, PCIe, 512 MB
On the other hand, I have an imac, also running 10.6.6, which runs GIMP
just fine.
