I'd love to think it's my own source code. However, the randomness of the 
errors I get (or sometimes, don't get) prevents me from easily tracking them 
down. Is there some randomization at work inside GTK? I can't see why there 
would be, but it's the only thing I can think of that would cause the same 
binary code to produce different behavior on successive runs.

And I can't form a test case until I know what triggers the crash, because 
otherwise I won't know if absence of a crash is evidence that the test is 
working or not.

If I had GTK source code to break on, it would make things easier. However, the 
distribution I'm using didn't come with source, and my attempts to compile the 
source releases I've found have so far been unsuccessful. Bloody Windows.
