Description:

Gedit keeps crashing when I try to create or edit text files with Myanmar text. When it crashes, the following message is displayed:

*** Error in `/usr/bin/gedit': realloc(): invalid next size: 0x0000000000bbf800 ***

The address at the end changes from run to run.

Running the application in gdb, I sometimes get the previous message and then gdb hangs, and sometimes I get the following message:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffff71fa9a5 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libgtk-3.so.0

Also, I have seen the following message several times (although I'm having a hard time find a situation that reliably produces it):

(gedit:978): Gtk-CRITICAL **: _gtk_css_rgba_value_get_rgba: assertion `rgba->class == &GTK_CSS_VALUE_RGBA' failed

Also, I saw the following message once after opening gedit and banging on the keyboard with a Burmese keyboard layout selected.

Segmentation fault (core dumped)


Additional info:
* Gedit version is 3.6.2-2


Steps to reproduce:
* Open gedit from the terminal by typing `gedit`
* Select a Burmese keyboard layout
* Type the Burmese Tachawngin character (the K key) until the entire line is full
* Once you hit the end of the line, gedit should hang, and the `invalid next size` message should be displayed in the terminal

This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Works for me
Additional comments about closing:  Can't reproduce this on 3.8.x. As this was reported against 3.6, closing it.
