I removed my 2.4.4 version and installed the 2.4.10 instead, and I tried
getting a minimal testcase. Here is the one I got, just execute these
commands:

cd /tmp
mkdir src
touch src/game.cpp
gedit src/game.cpp

Then gedit opens the file (obviously empty) and if i ask to open a new
file (located in src/ since it is where the current file is located),
then gedit crashes. It happens every time, and for all the computers I
have tested it on.

As a side note, if I open the game.cpp file directly from the src/
directory then gedit does not crash on displaying the open file dialog
box.

Hope it helps.
