Another clue:

After gimp crashed in gdb, I couldn't type
anything in any xterminal.

However, pressing ctl-alt-F1, to go to an old
school console, worked.

That let me kill gdb's process and fix my key
baord.


Another clue, maybe:

gdb reported

    Thread 1 "gimp" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
    0xb7010f49 in signal_emit_unlocked_R (node=node@entry=0x82e7b2a0,

So,
