crash when zooming to layer extent

[ScottParker]

• using Albers coordinate system - zoom to layer extent of gpx file works OK
• change to latlong WGS84
• now zoom to layer extent causes QGIS to crash with "needs to close" message

zoom to layer extent works OK with other gpx files

Please attach gpx track or add a link where it is possible to download it.

I have tried to reduce the datasets and sequence required to reproduce the bug but this is the best I can do.

-start with testing2.qgs (NAD83/ CA Albers EPSG 3310)
-add ​http://atlas.ca.gov/casil/imageryBaseMapsLandCover/baseMaps/drg/30x60_minute_series_albers_nad83_untrimmed/f38119a1.tif (nothing smaller seems to cause the problem)
-add testing4GM.gpx
-change to WGS84 EPSG 4326
-select testing4GM and Zoom to layer extent

A few points:

*) the project was made with qgis 1.0.2, if you are using such version you should specify that, not "head", in the ticket.

*) the problem should be duplicate of #2457, you may want to add there new findings about this problem. Reopen if necessary.

*) in any case you cannot reproject rasters in qgis, but I agree that qgis should not crash in this situations

see also #2457

I verified the fix with this data in case the fix for #2457 did not cover this one. It does not reproject on the fly (I did not expect on the fly.) but it does not crash as before.

Thanks for fixing this.
