Hi again I did some hacking and systematically eliminated layers by commenting out <maplayer>...</maplayer> tags in the qgs file until I found an offending one. After deleting that one from the file, it loaded normally. I don't know what was wrong with that layer, it happened to be a virtual layer, I don't know if that is significant. Anyway, I managed to recover the file but the problem/bug remains.
