Further clarification.... Only occurs when scanning library either in background or intentionally.  Turned off automatic scan in background and crashes seemed to stop.

Bad file(s), perhaps?

Perhaps.... Any suggestions on how to locate it/them?

Usually just look at the bottom of the log, it indicates what MC was last doing. In your case, it was trying to thumbnail this:
/mnt/TedDocuments/Documents/Scans/2014-01-21/Tax Bills.tiff

Not sure why you have MC indexing your Tax files, but either excluding those folders from being included or moving that file specifically might stop it.
Usually we would ask for a copy of the file to see that we can fix the problem, but tax files.. really?

oops!  Thanks!  I'll have to tidy up my library directories!
