https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=744694 looks to be the same issue. which suggests virt-manager (in that case) and Gimp in this case are not to blame. Suggest this *might* be a glibc quirk.
BZ 744694 was fixed after upgrading GLIBC. please can you upgrade glibc to 2.14.90-10 or greater and re-test this.
