Could paste the output of running the attached binary in a terminal?
You have to run it like "./test-mime-info-cache-new". I'm also attaching the
source code in case you want to compile it yourself (do it with "gcc
test-mime-info-cache-new.c -o test-mime-info-cache-new `pkg-config --cflags
--libs gnome-vfs-2.0`").

Also, after doing that, can you downgrade shared-mime-info to the version in
testing and see if the problem goes away?

Thanks,
Emilio
