It has always crashed on my Linux setup when I scan images or videos. I
know the JPEG image that crashes in my setup works good in Michael's OSX
setup.

If you get scanner crash problems, try to run the scanner from command
line, especially if you run it with debug logging enabled. Running it
from the command line will sometimes indicate more information about
what's causing it than what's visible in scanner.log. 

I've also applied the following patch which makes it show a bit more
debug information:

There is a known problem with NFS mounted directories, not sure if
that's the case in your setup, I'm just mentioning in case it is:
