I found a workaround : i write the TAB chain in a text file, then use :
choice=$(cat TAB.txt | zenity --list --hide-header 
--window-icon=/path/my_icon.png \
  --title="$my_title" --text="$Please_choose_an_item" --column="") || 
quit_function;

Hope this helps.

Title:
  [regression] xargs: zenity: terminated by signal 11

Status in OS-Uninstaller:
  Invalid
Status in Zenity:
  New
Status in “zenity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since Ubuntu 12.04, the following zenity --list returns systematically
  "xargs: zenity: terminated by signal 11" error whatever the user
  choice.

  Here is the code:
  choice=$(echo $TAB | xargs zenity --list --hide-header 
--window-icon=/path/my_icon.png \
                --title="$my_title" --text="$Please_choose_an_item" 
--column="") || quit_function;

  
  The same code works ok on 10.04, 11.04, 11.10.

  Any workaround is welcome :)
