When attempting to open a specific blend file, blender closes. The blend had been working before. Debug says EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. Same crash happens if attempting to append or link to the same blend. Same crash happens with backup version of blend file. Same crash happens on completely different computer (Windows 7) when attempting to open the same bugged blend file.

I'm on OSX. I was able to open the file, but there is no assets in them.
Not sure if you packed them before saving. But that may also be why it is not crashing for me.
I opened, tried to render a few frames, but no assets, no render.
I then saved the file. Try to open this saved file and see what happens.
FJ_entervillains-mpg.blend
I had not packed the assets. (Apologies for not saying.)
I can open that saved file! It correctly paths to the audio portions but seems confused on the stills and video strips. [EDIT: It correctly paths the images and video as well, FJ's blend file simply had the UV Image Editor up instead of the VSE window.] As far as I'm concerned, personally, this solves my problem.
As far as what caused the bug in the first place, it's perhaps less useful of a solution, but I'm pleased that someone else on another system opening and then saving the file fixed the bug on this specific file.

It caused Blender to close on me. However, next time attached the blend file here instead of external file host.
Also, no crash log generated.
What OS are you on @fablefox ?
Windows 7 64 bit.

@FloridaJo, please triage a little bit more careful in the future, just because the user is on windows, doesn't mean it's a windows specific issue.
This specific issue I can repro with a stock 2.78c on both windows and Linux.
The good news is, i can't repro it with a latest master build, so whatever the issue was is likely fixed already.
@fablefox try a nightly build from http://builder.blender.org to validate the issue is fixed for you.
The issue fixed for me with latest master build. I hope it also fixed for the OP, @JLL
I'm just trying to reproduce the issue.

Considering this as fixed for now, then. Thanks for the report.
