I've traced through the code and can't find anything wrong in how we
use the GTK+ API. I've looked at the source for GTK+-1.2.7 and
I *think* the bus error is happening in the section of gtk_args_collect()
where the va_list is used to retrieve arguments (GTK_ARG_COLLECT_VALUE()).
Where did you get this installation of GTK+? Did you install a binary, or
build it yourself? If you did not build it yourself, it might be worthwhile
to do so.
I checked patch-gtk+-1.2.7-1.2.8 and don't see any changes to that
section of code, so upgrading to 1.2.8 probably won't help. It might help
if I'm wrong, though.
