>From my limited knowledge, what I'd expect was happening is this: you click 
the button, and your callback gets called. When you call gtk_widget_destroy(), 
the "destroy" signal fires. AFAIK gtk_widget_destroyed attempts to destroy the 
current widget. So you end up destroying it twice.

Try instead of the second gtk_signal_connect() this:

	gtk_signal_connect_object(
		GTK_OBJECT(okBtn),	// Object signal is attached to
		"clicked",		// Signal name
		GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC(gtk_widget_destroyed), // Callback
		GTK_OBJECT(dlg),	// Object actually passed to callback
		NULL);			// User data

Of course, I could be entirely wrong. Feel free to correct me.
