Unfortunately I can't change the OS on either machine so I can't tell if the
problem is due to the OS or the processor, or both.

It says a buffer overflow was detected and it gives the stack trace showing
what functions were called that led to the problem. I'm not an expert in python
or gtk internals but maybe if you report it to the gtk developers they will
know how to fix it.
Ok, I'll try my luck with them. I thought that that particular combination of
os, cpu, and ports would be common here, and someone could tell me if it works
for them, so I'd know if there is something wrong with my setup.
