I've been hit by this today, after having been offline for a couple of
days (and hence not upgrading my sid laptop for ~3 days).

I haven't tried to revert the commit mentioned in this bug log, but I
have reverted libgtk2.0-0 (and friends packages) to 2.24.4-3 and I can
confirm that fixes the high CPU problem.

As agreed on #debian-gnome a minute ago, I'm hereby bumping severity (so
that the chances that others spot this _before_ upgrading are higher) as
well as marking it as affecting popular bug targets, such as gnome-panel
and evolution.

Thanks for maintaining GTK+ and related stacks!
Cheers.
