It would probably help to start gimp from an xterm (or whatever terminal emulator you prefer) and check if there's any output on the console. I guess that your problem is a somewhat broken font that causes problems with the libraries that handle fonts for GIMP. Does this happen with whatever font you choose? What versions of freetype and fontconfig are you using?
