serpentine crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance()

[Albert Damen]

Binary package hint: serpentine

Trying to debug the frequent crash reports on serpentine on upgrades from Gutsy to Hardy, I did an upgrade test with a Gutsy VM (amd64, no cdrom attached) in KVM.

- Start Gutsy VM
- Verify serpentine is installed
- Upgrade to Hardy
- Reboot the VM
- Activate apport
- Start serpentine in terminal
- Close serpentine without any other activity
- serpentine crashes, no other error messages shown in the terminal window

This may well be a duplicate of bug 91168, but it seems interesting to try and get a proper stacktrace for serpentine / pygtk on Hardy as well.

Apparently the retracer for Hardy does not work anymore.
