This whole thing was rather odd. The KDE4.13 update didn't include a new kernel (I check the update before I apply). It was only a KDE4 update I triggered... but somehow something tweaked the NVidia driver in such a way that only Chrome and Chromium would trigger an X crash. In the time when KDE 4.13 showed up in KDE:Current, there was also Xserver update (xorg-x11-server package) in Update repository. And this could cause issue with NVidia blob driver. Not the KDE update itself. I just spotted that here... about 1 minute after you sent your email :-)
Yes, the xorg package was the culprit that caused my odd problems with Chromium.

I think that it is fair to say that people ought to be made aware of this problem with the nVidia driver as a result of upgrading to KDE 4.13. My wife loves to play backgammon (gnubg) but it stopped 'working' when she tried to play it this morning. I remembered what you said re recompiling the nVidia driver and after I did this gnubg was back in business. She is again a happy little vegemite :-) .
