Bug Description

When I have gimp open to edit some pictures taken with cheese and I then open cheese and take pictures and close it. When I go to gimps File > Open menu item Gimp crashes (simply disappears without a trace)

This might be a problem with the webcam being used in gimp as a scanner, replication on other machines would be useful.
