Well in the end, I did not want to push it to tomorrow. So I just
tested and made the ticket now.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=712536

With this patch, we will handle better broken themes.

In the meantime, you should fix your theme if you want it to work with
current GTK+.
In particular, just remove all the gap_file, gap_start_file and
gap_end_file in your gtkrc which do not correspond to an existing
image. These were the pieces of the gtkrc which was making GTK+ crash.
