With the same Ubuntu as yours, running in a VM of 1024 MB RAM, I have no
problem with Chrome and current master (without Madhura's patch).

My problem in Chrome appears in 
libraries/OutputBuffering.class.php, line 93.

    /**
     * This function will need to run at the top of all pages if output
     * output buffering is turned on.  It also needs to be passed $mode
     * from the PMA_outBufferModeGet() function or it will be useless.
     *
     * @return void
     */
87   public function start()
88    {
89        if (! $this->_on) {
90            if ($this->_mode) {                     // does not enter here
91              ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
92            }
               // echo "test"; -> shows a message
93            ob_start();                                
               // echo "test"; -> fails to print anything
94            if (! defined('TESTSUITE')) {
                header('X-ob_mode: ' . $this->_mode);
            }
            register_shutdown_function('PMA_OutputBuffering::stop');
            $this->_on = true;
        }
    } 


As a side note, in /etc/php5/apache2filter/php.ini, I have defined: 
output_buffering = 4096. 
Commenting out ob_start(); shows [1] instead of a blank page, but
it still has the same errors.

I've found an article from January 3rd 2013 mentioning a similar
problem in Chrome here [2], but it's not exactly the same.
