Could you try to see if setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the environment where
GNOME Shell is launched to the lib directory of the =E2=80=9Cgdk-pixbuf+svg=
=E2=80=9D (or
=E2=80=9Cgdk-pixbuf=E2=80=9D) package makes any difference?

You may need to do this in ~/.xsession and launch the gnome-session
manually.
