I can confirm that this bug is affecting bash-4.3-7. At least once a day I'll see bash crash due to this. It's been going on for a while, but It was rather mysterious since I never saw the error message until I set up gnome-terminal to not close when bash exits. By the way, it may or may not be important that, like the original bug reporter, I am using a 64-bit system.
