Only the gnome desktop is locked-up. If I get out with
ctrl-alt-backspace then I can log in again.
I attached the offending app. Start it and click the "test" menu.

This is new news to me. The only thing that I know of that would make
a machine lock up so as to require a reboot is a memory leak or some
obscure X11 bug. Certainly nothing in GTK itself could directly crash
a computer.
When the system locks up, is the computer still alive? Can you ssh
into it, can you shut down the X server (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace)? These
kind of locks you describe are either just a misunderstanding of what
is really locked up, or very very rare (I haven't heard of one in a
long time). Are you running nvidia binary graphics drivers by chance?
