[Bug 940359] [NEW] Segmentation fault on closing layers/channels/path/undo dock.

 

Public bug reported:

Ordinarily, the layers/channels/path/undo dock may be closed without
affecting work.  Lately, doing so invariably results in abrupt crash of
application.  Invoking gimp from terminal emulator, program crash is
reported thusly:

(script-fu:3698): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: gimp_wire_read(): error
Segmentation fault

Update to kernel or libraries within past week highly suspect.  Erased
and reinstalled entire system, before any further configuration, tested
gimp as described above, performed normally.  Then ran Update Manager,
tested again, encountered problem.

Simultaneously arriving bugs reported separately as:
* Processing becomes wedged during image rescale.
* Selected area vanishes on change of tool choice
