The original bug segfaulted on launch. Now the only segfault occurs 
within loading that particular plugin. So whatever changed within GTK+ 
and the bindings Gedit uses [sans the gedit-plugins] that original bug 
can be closed as the behavior is no longer present.

I only suggest a regression test on what might be the offending code in 
that particular plugin that causes an immediate crash for Gedit upon 
selection. Whatever the method call that loads the module into use it 
automatically segfaults Gedit.
