Thanks for your update and sorry for not being more responsive. The
problem here is that you submitted your information to a bug report
which seems to describe your problem but actually does not. Additionally
it was submitted at a time when there was a big mess with libgc1c.

OK. From your backtrace I think that you are hitting another bug [1] related
to double inclusion of gtk themes caused by some theming engines, most
notably the smooth engine in connection with gtk2-engines-gtk-qt.

Could you please check your gtk configuration, follow his advice and
report back?

BTW, which desktop environment do you use?
