Does the bug still occur with brasero 0.8.4 in Ubuntu Jaunty, or even 0.8.2 in Intrepid release?

Yes, it still occurs in brasero 0.8.2.
This bug refers to GTK because it apperas often in any other gtk application on opening Gnome file chooser dialog.
I reassign it to GTK package.

I am looking in the source code of gtk and looks like it crash at this line:
tip = g_strdup_printf (_("Add the selected folders to the bookmarks"));

I am using ro_RO.utf8 locale. May be that is the problem?

Thanks for your backtrace. Unfortunately it's missing debug symbols for libc6. If you could install libc6-dbg and provide a new backtrace, that would be really helpful, thanks!
