This may strictly be an issue on MSYS64 / MinGW64. That is unknown. The problem has been duplicated: https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/issues/3780 The Runtime Environment Is MSYS64 / MinGW64. (MSYS2 20161025 Upgraded with pacman -Syu). It worked fine, previous to my most recent set of pacman updates. When running: /mingw64/bin/glade-3.exe And I try to save a file, after selecting or entering a filename, and clicking Save in the File Chooser Dialog, the program crashes, (segfaults), and the file size is zero. When I use gdb to troubleshoot the Segmentation Fault, I get the following: Thread 1 received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007ff90f48c981 in strlen () from C:\Windows\System32\msvcrt.dll Whether I run an executable installed by pacman or built from source. When I build from source and enable debugging symbols, I get more info as below, but in the first few lines it identifies the file and line below, and the problem has been isolated to that line. (gdb) bt #0 0x00007ff90f48c981 in strlen () from C:\Windows\System32\msvcrt.dll #1 0x0000000068611286 in ?? () from C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\libglib-2.0-0.dll #2 0x0000000068611f25 in ??

But the program appears to save the file correctly. If I hardcode it like this: 1865 // retval = g_stat (filename, &info); 1866 retval = 0; I get a message about the filename being null, and it does not appear to save the file correctly, but it does not segfault.
