It's related in that I get a reproducible crash with evolution-rss
enabled; the problem is that there's no plugin cleanup mechanism in
evolution (only plugin init), and evolution-rss uses an "atexit"
handler to cleanup gtkmozembed stuff. If you don't cleanup gtkmozembed
stuff, you might have a broken profile stored on disk. I think cleanup
crashes because the widgets are already destroyed by the rest of the
exit steps. Didn't diagnose further.

I don't know; perhaps you can backup .evolution/?
