In the interests of scientific inquiry, I did:

  make clean
  CFLAGS="-g -O2 -D_REENTRANT -fomit-frame-pointer" configure
  make

Moved my old libraries out of the way, and testgtk worked perfectly.

I'd still like to get to the root of this ... 

If the problem lies with the -fomit-frame-pointer, than my guess
is it is a GTK problem with the signal marshalling somewhere.
If it is a problem with the -D_REENTRANT, than the problem probably
lies between X and glibc. If the problem is with -O2, than it is
GCC's fault...
