Title:
  [xmir] Crash when launching gimp with a file arg

Status in libertine package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Starting gimp without any args works fine, like this:
  ubuntu-app-launch puritine_gimp_0.0

  However appending an arg causes a crash during startup:
  ubuntu-app-launch puritine_gimp_0.0 file:///home/phablet/Documents/HubIncoming/webbrowser-app.1.1.png

  Here's a link to the crash report which I think was generated when this happens.
  https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/79b28824-78cc-11e5-bf0f-fa163e339c81

  And the upstart log:
  http://paste.ubuntu.com/12894662/

  Once this fails to once, it'll fail to launch gimp even without args
  until the device is rebooted.

  I can only reproduce this with gimp, firefox behaves fine when
  launched with the same arg.
