Bug 437293

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #328531 +++

Description of problem:
when trying to debug (in debugging mode) this minimal C code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main () {
    for (;;) {
        sleep(1);
        puts("x");
    }
}

frysk crashes with this on stdout/stderr:

[matej@viklef] $ frysk       
java.lang.Exception: (for origin information, set GTK_DEBUG): failed to retrieve
property `GtkTreeView::odd-row-color' of type `GdkColor' from rc file value
"((GString*) 0x882ae20)" of type `GString'

[matej@viklef] $ 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
frysk-0.0.1.2007.09.24-1.fc8
frysk-gnome-0.0.1.2007.09.24-1.fc8

How reproducible:
frysk either freezes or crashes -- tried three times with either of these results.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.run frysk
2.open session with running program above
3.(if not frozen already) push next button
  
Actual results:
frysk either crashes or if it gets to showing toolbar it freezes

Expected results:
stepping through the code

Additional info:
I am probably doing something very stupid, but I really don't see the way how to
make this work. I tried to use frysk for debugging of my pretty trivial utility,
but I haven't managed to do it. Could you please help me how to make this work?

frysk -> libgtk-java; and owner -> sami.  I believe a libgtk-java update
addressed this specific issue.
