That's weird, it used to be the other way around -- Gtk2 would freeze during introspection:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669120
That's why there are separate stacks for Gtk2 and Gtk3 in stable, and why Gtk2 has introspection disabled in unstable.

I've never been able to figure out a strategy to debug introspection and find what's making it hang.
