I think I found out how to reproduce this bug. It happens when the ui
preference "image-gallery-resizable" is set to "true":

myself@machine:~$ eog &
myself@machine:~$ gsettings set org.gnome.eog.ui "image-gallery-resizable" true

and eog segfaults. This particular dconf key cannot be set via the
preferences gui in eog (at least not in the current version, and perhaps
not ever -- see quote below). In my case, this setting was inherited via
an upgrade from lucid (10.04), which in turn had been upgraded from
older versions all the way back to 4.10.

>From release notes of eog 2.19.1:

  * Support for setting image collection position (left, right, top,
    bottom) and wether it's resizable or not. No preference UI
    yet (Lucas Rocha)
