I think those are all warnings from glib, and possibly not relevant;
I'd still be tempted to blame the segfault on the same root cause as
the F11 case. What's your version of libv4l?

glibc: standard core C libraries
glib2: low-level library for GTK and GNOME

I think the warnings above are about glib2 issues, not glibc issues,
and glib2 is a dependency (direct or indirect) of all GNOME apps so it
can't be missing.
