I tried to reproduce this. Not being a GNOME user, I looked at reverse
dependencies of libgtk-3-0.

wireshark, evince, gitg, gobby-0.5, emerillon are unaffected (and evince
arguably is a core gnome component).

Just gnunet-gtk crashes immediately after upgrading the package set
concerned with the following assertion:

gnunet-statistics-gtk: /tmp/buildd/cairo-1.10.2/src/cairo-surface.c:1174: cairo_surface_mark_dirty_rectangle: Assertion `!  _cairo_surface_has_mime_data (surface)' failed.

Cannot reproduce.

Everything looks normal for me, but maybe I just like 2D.

Hope this helps in sorting things out.
