Using vim8 from a ppa has worked for me. The latest vim has the patch
mentioned in github#851.
Perhaps it could be SRU'ed into 16.04's vim7, but that would require
someone to put the effort in.
The PPA I used was:
ppa:jonathonf/vim
Thanks to @oymyisme for figuring out the root cause.

after study , I think the problem is in vim-gtk3.
"unset GTK_MODULES" works because vim-gtk3 doesn't use menu bar in this way.
check my post at https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/851.

On my computer, if "unset GTK_MODULES", vim-gtk3 wouldn't crash.
Another software based on QT also crashed with GTK_MODULES set, and works well
after "unset GTK_MODULES".
So I think vim-gtk3 is victim too.

Unfortunately while vim-gtk doesn't crash, it does perform poorly during
redraws - see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/320700
I haven't yet found a solution on 16.04 under VMware that both performs well
and doesn't crash.

Workaround: remove vim-gnome and vim-gtk3, install vim-gtk (which uses
gtk). Perhaps vim-gtk3 should specify a dependency on some specific gtk
library, which Nicholas Guriev and me are missing?
