If the crashes are in the middle of the text widget, it's probably the
text widget that's not doing something right.  An attempt of mine to
have the text widget move to show the selected field's data when a new
field is selected (an "#if"ed-out version of which got checked into
"gtk/main.c" at one point - look for the stuff that a recent checkin of
mine deleted) caused plenty of crashes inside GTK+'s text widget.
