Based on Timo Aaltonen's theory, I changed the Gnome screensaver via `gnome-screensaver-preferences' to use "Blank screen" instead of my usual "Random". In 48 hours, I would typically expect my machine to crash 1-3 times. For the next 48 hours, it did not crash. After that 48 hours, I started `gnome-screensaver-preferences' again and I ran each screensaver in the small viewing window of the application for 5-10 seconds. When I reached "Picture folder", my X session crashed.
