For the record, these are *not* the all-in-one installers. See here:

Well... sort of. Reading your linked bug, it looks like this bug will
only (?) happen with GTK+ 2.22.x. Earlier versions have the stock icon
for missing, and later versions fixed the lookup crash.

This looks like we can blame the recent files feature, probably due to
it not being able to find the icon-name "meld" when looking up
recently used files for menu construction. This may be bad mime XML
installation, or something else. However, I don't know what, if
anything, can sensibly be done about this on our end.
