I'm sorry, you've completely lost me. The instructions at 
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash told me to install the version 
with the -dbg suffix if it was available, which I did. Looking through the 
files in this package I found 
/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/nautilus
which, as shown in my last comment, appears to be an alternative version of the 
nautilus executable without the symbols stripped. So I am assuming that this is 
the executable I need to run under gdb in order to get the backtrace. However, 
I cannot run it, as shown above. I don't know why it will not execute, because 
it is an executable for the right platform and it has execute permission. I now 
tried adding 
/usr/lib/debug/usr/lib
to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but this does not change the result.
I have googled all over for causes of "cannot execute binary file" but cannot 
find anything useful. So I am stuck. Perhaps I should fall back on the method 
described for when there is no package with a -dbg suffix available?
