This looks like the same issue as #852746. The workaround appears to be
to avoid installing more than one OpenCL implementation at the same time:

- If you have an AMD GPU, install mesa-opencl-icd
- If you have an NVIDIA GPU and are using the proprietary driver,
  install nvidia-opencl-icd or one of the nvidia-*-opencl-icd packages
- If you have an Intel integrated GPU, install beignet-opencl-icd or
  intel-opencl-icd

The first two lines that you quoted (prefixed with Gtk-Message) do not
appear to be related to the crash: you will probably get those when
attempting to run any GTK application.

topmenu-gtk was removed from Debian in early 2018. Its removal was
requested in https://bugs.debian.org/888324 by its maintainer due to
several serious bugs.

To avoid messages about trying to load it, remove topmenu-gtk-module
from your GTK_MODULES environment variable or desktop configuration
(in GNOME this would mean removing it from the dconf key
/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/xsettings/enabled-gtk-modules or adding
it to /org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/xsettings/disabled-gtk-modules,
but the procedure might be different for other desktop environments).
