--- Comment #1 from Paul <paul at claws-mail.org> ---
I've seen this crash too, as have many others using a variety of different
software. It is a crash in glib's g_type_check_instance_is_a.

If you search for it you'll find there is a difference of opinion: a bug in
GTK, a bug in the GTK theme, or a bug in GLib. I would hazard a guess at the
latter ...or the former.

For a pertinent example see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/1848

It seems that all we can do as users right now is to quit our GTK programs
before changing theme.
