Comment 3 for bug 2047920

I've hit (and eventually fixed) a couple issues like this before - generally it's from some issue in the C# bindings for GTK that causes a crash eventually. It's not exactly Windows specific, but often the crashes appear much more reliably there.

I had some debugging code that runs the garbage collector more frequently (https://github.com/PintaProject/Pinta/blob/master/Pinta/Main.cs#L100) which can make some types of issues appear much sooner after the original action that triggered them. Would it be useful to expose that behind some command line switch or environment variable if you're not compiling from source?
