I've attached a patch that should fix this upstream however I could not
reproduce the bug on my system so its untested. Is someone with this
issue able to apply the patch and test that it works?

Title:
enters infinite loop on entering certain date formats
Status in Light-Weight Text Editor for Gnome:
New
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
In Progress
Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gedit
To reproduce:
Start gedit in the ru_RU.utf8 locale (this is important! in this
locale %p yields an empty string, in the C or en_US.utf8 locale it
doesn't and thus the bug is not reproducible).
Choose Правка > Вставить дату и время... (Edit > Insert Date and
Time...) from the menu.
Choose the Использовать другой формат (Use custom format) option.
Try to enter %p in the provided box.
Once you do so, gedit starts consuming 100% CPU and compiz dims its
window. At this point, you don't have any other option except to kill
gedit.
Instead, gedit should process the provided date format and yield
nothing.
