--- Comment #1 from Albert Astals Cid <aacid at kde.org> ---
That file has two features we don't support:
 * It identifies itself as version 12 and we fail if version > 11
 * It has a layer of type RGB_GIMAGE with bpp 6 and we only support
RGB_GIMAGE layers of bpp3

I stopped debugging there, needs someone to put some time into it.

Martin you did the last big-ish refactor in the XCF loader, fancy
having a go?

Or maybe you Daniel?
