For some reason, running `caja` often results in a segfault.

A representative syslog entry:

```
shiny kernel: [85028.864740] caja[26816]: segfault at 34003260 ip 00007ff651ff91a4 sp 00007fffde617e00 error 4 in libc-2.13.so[7ff651fb0000+195000]
```

This may be unrelated to caja specifically. Investigation led me to replace libc6 manually, and delete the mime.cache file (suggestions from various discussion forums).

Segfault behaviour is inconsistent, sometimes occurring immediately on program execution, sometimes after the program has loaded and any other function is performed (typically pressing f3 to open the second pane)
