xfce4-sensors-plugin crashes since update yesterday

Hello,

as stated in the headline, I'm using xfce4 with the

 extra/xfce4-sensors-plugin 0.10.99.6-2 (xfce4-goodies)

plugin. Since yesterday (I updated my system with yaourt -Syu --aur) it crashes constantly if I try to start it in the panel.
If I try too start it on command line:

$ xfce4-sensors 
Segmentation fault

The strange thing is: I installed aur/xfce4-sensors-plugin-git 20091013-1 - and it worked!
Would be very nice if the maintainer of the xfce4-sensors-plugin could fix this abboying bug!

Thanks!

I think it is hicolor-icon-theme 0.11-1, but I can't say why.

Okay... things become stranger... yesterday, I tried again xfce4-sensors-plugin 0.10.99.6-2  - and it worked. Today, as I started my system... it worked not!

I have searched a little bit around how to analyse an Segfault and found gdb. Here is the gdb output:
