Hmm, could you try the patch I uploaded to ftp.gimp.org?  I think it
is `gtk-mvo-971013-0'.  It addresses ref counting issues.

Unfortunately this patch is not backward compatible, so nobody will
try it, I'm afraid.  Try adding

    #define gdk_font_free                 gdk_font_unref
    #define gdk_fonset_free               gdk_font_unref
    #define gdk_pixmap_destroy            gdk_pixmap_unref
    #define gdk_colormap_destroy          gdk_colormap_unref
    #define gtk_accelerator_table_destroy gtk_accelerator_table_unref
    #define gtk_tooltips_destroy          gtk_tooltips_unref

somewhere appropriate.

I'm almost sure that the patch fixes your problem.
