Bug#656564: libglib2.0-0: since upgrade to 2.30.2-5 programs start segfaulting at random

Package: libglib2.0-0
Version: 2.30.2-5
Severity: important

Dear all, 

since the very recent upgrade to 2.30.2-5 various programs start
to play crazy:
- gnome-settings-daemon often crashes with segfault in libglib2.0:
  gnome-settings-[3634]: segfault at ffffffff017290e0 ip 00007f8e87a1378e sp 00007fffaa6230d0 error 4 in libglib-2.0.so.0.3000.2[7f8e8798c000+f6000]

- vim cannot connect to the X server at segfaults (see bug #656416)
  (libglib is not explicitely mentioned in the backtrace in the
  bug report, but was the only update that somehow is related, as I checked
  what-pkg-broke vim-gnome)

Is there any information I can provide, then let me know.

Thanks and all the best

Norbert
