The immediate problem (at least with regard to AisleRiot induced
crashes) has been fixed by a patch to libgtk, as referenced in bug
#450832. I can confirm that after this update the apparent growth of
memory assigned to cache in System Monitor while running AisleRiot is
gone and I infer from that that the crashing problem on my Gateway
P-series is gone too.

However, as several others have commented in other duplicates and
related bug reports, there is still a question of whether a bug in
libgtk should have been able to cause a segfault in xorg-server itself.
I will leave that question to be answered by more experienced developers
and testers.
