yes, sorry i forgot to mention it.
I didn't have much time to work on this issue but I think this crash
is not new, and it should also happen with the current port. I guess
it is due to GTK violating the X11 protocol, but I don't know enough
their internals to give a better diagnostic. It is also boring to
debug because of the async nature of the crash. All I know is that it
crashes on a code path that is supposed to be handled correctly by
cairo. So I'll probably have to circumvent this once again.
