The crash is reproducible on Precise (see my duplicate bug report #927150) -- I 
followed the instructions provided by fabrg in bug #926858:
Steps to reproduce:

1. Open gedit and display File Browser (side panel)
2. Open a structure folder with some folders and files (i suggest you /home/), 
and expand some folder till you see some files, like
-- /afolder/
--------afile
--------afile
-- /afolder/
--------afile
--------afile
--------afile
3. click "refresh view" button
4. the structure should collapse automaticaly. if not, try to refresh again 
untill it does. (probally gedit will crash)
5. when the folder collapse, expand it again.
6. repeat steps 3 to 5 till gedit crashes.

I had to repeat steps 3-5 quite a few times but in the end gedit crashed
when I clicked on the expand arrow for a directory.


** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu)
