Result! XD There were indeed some (now broken after being moved to
trash) symlinks in there! Moving two of them out of the trash stopped
the crash! The symlinks that caused the SIGSEGV, were also relative-
based ones, I've posted the result of ls -la below.

lrwxrwxrwx  1 jonathan jonathan        13 Apr  8 05:04 ToggleRGB.c -> 
ToggleRGB.ino
lrwxrwxrwx  1 jonathan jonathan        11 Apr  8 05:05 ToggleRGB.ino -> 
ToggleRGB.c

There is indeed a circular reference created here is there not as
they're now referencing each other? These files weren't originally ever
together at the same time until they were deleted, and then this problem
occurred when they were moved into the trash together. I wasn't aware
Nautilus would try to resolve the symlinks in some way, but surely
crashing when this situation occurs is still undesirable behaviour?

Many thanks for helping work out what was going wrong though :)
