Are you sure that it is the GTK code?

I had a problem like this, last week, but the problem was that the app
was not waiting for the childs and execs/systems to exit clean.

I added some sane checks before exiting and it never coredump again :-)

I looked over your code, and I guess that you have a similar problem.
