Bug#705086: python-gtk2: segmentation fault when gtk.FileChooser browses certain folders

[gunther]

Package: python-gtk2
Version: 2.17.0-4
Severity: important

When I use a program, such as gvim with :browse confirm e, or google-chrome
with open file... or any other program (even reportbug) that uses
gtk.FileChooser, to open a file in or save a file to my home folder or
~/Documents folder, the program prompty crashes with a segfault.
