3) Clicking on Bluefish icon from HUD - nothing happens, program never starts.

4) Running Bluefish from terminal - error message is shown, program never starts.

Bluefish was running fine in 13.10. I upgraded to 14.04 (32 bit) and reinstalled Bluefish after upgrade.

From Synaptic, when installing Bluefish:

After this, I tried to run Bluefish and the program failed to start. In terminal, the error message was:

(bluefish:18130): GLib-ERROR **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.40.0/./glib/gmem.c:103: failed to allocate 4125921482 bytes

I mentioned this on the GLib-CRITICAL error thread in two comments, here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1282542/comments/32 and here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1282542/comments/33, and someone suggested I file a bug report against Bluefish, so here it is.
