Well, I verified that this problem with XMMS crashing on OpenGL plugins does *not* occur with the 4620 driver as pointed out by SuLinUX above. Thanks! It even works fine on my system with a new 2.6.6 kernel.

But, that would lead me to think it probably *is* a bug in the newer NVidia drivers, not in XMMS, which has wasted so much of my time! So I guess I should retract the bug report I filed and leave some info there about which driver to use to avoid that problem.
