Just a guess, that this might be related to Tracker’s Evolution plugin. > I'd like to file a bug report, but due to my apparent inability to use the > gdb tool properly am unable to do so.

I think, you should report a bug at Ubuntu’s bugtracker Launchpad. Hopefully the Ubuntu maintainers can point you to some repository providing newer versions. If not you have to build the package (evolution and evolution-data-server) yourself which is not that difficult.
