Javier, I have had over 1300 package upgrades since making this report 
(daily dist-upgrade on unstable). I went though my dpkg.log and found 
the top 53 upgrades that I thought might be related (glib, gtk2, xfce, 
filesystem handling infrastructure, accessibility, and related) and 
attached this list to give you some ideas. These are just my guesses, 
and I may have missed some important ones. There are also duplicates as 
some packages were upgraded several times. There were also udev upgrades 
that I ignored. The crash happened for local file moves so I am not 
convinced this was caused by filesystem mounting operations (udev, 
gvfs). Please let me know if you want the full list.

This failure looked to me like heap corruption caused by a thread race 
condition while moving files.

Kind regards,
