This is actually a bug in gnome-menus-2.28.0.1-0ubuntu3. In debian/patches/22_desktop-cache.patch line 48, which once applied inserts as line 322 of libmenu/desktop-entries.c:

  DesktopEntry *retval;

The uninitialized retval is later returned in the event of an error. Initialising this to NULL stops the segfaults.
