Ok. I loaded that little snippet of code into the debugger and it crashes with that error message:

[...]

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
gdk_window_get_geometry (window=0x0, x=0x0, y=0x0, width=0x4067ef5c, height=0x4067ef60, depth=0x0) at gdkwindow-x11.c:2147
	in gdkwindow-x11.c
(gdb)

He want to search gdkwindow-x11.c in the current directory as it seems..

Sorry. I haven't much experiences with debugging.
