This is very likely a duplicate of Debian bugs #616150 and #634091,
which is IMHO a bug in the gtk+2.0 package.

If you want you can try my patch for gtk+2.0 that I've posted here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=57;filename=fix_null_pointer_segfault.patch;att=2;bug=616150

If you can confirm that this patch fixes your problem, I'll merge this
bug with the other two bugs.

Regards,
Micha
