Lenroc's reply is accurate, but he hadn't seen the conclusion yet, it
would seem.  The problem is gtk+ 2.6.x.  Either upgrade to the latest
available and hope it's patched (it should be shortly on anything that
keeps up), or downgrade to gtk+ 2.4.x, or reinstall gtk+ 2.6.x from
source, patching it yourself, see

for a discussion of the problem (with Evolution) and the gtk+ patch.
