Are/were you running a 3rd party freetype2 package? Infinality or other?

freetype2 from extra.

If it helps I can also reliably create this issue with both Gimp and the Qt GUI for virtualbox with the relevant section of startx output being:

Qt WARNING: libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
xmonad-x86_64-linux: user error (Error in function getWindowAttributes)
xinit: connection to X server lost

for virtualbox and for Gimp:

LibGimpBase-WARNING **: gimp: gimp_wire_read(): error
xmonad-x86_64-linux: user error (Error in function getWindowAttributes)
xinit: connection to X server lost

When starting Gimp I will see several gimp_wire_read() error messages but the program is still running fine. Once I attempt to open a file however it crashes with the last message being "xmonad-x86_64-linux: user error (Error in function getWindowAttributes)"

I've tested it with a .gif and several .png files.

Hopefully that helps!

It seems X crashes with FontForge also.

Weird, gimp can't start here since it's broken. So I can't reproduce it

GEGL-geglmodule.c-Message: Module '/usr/lib/gegl-0.2/openraw.so' load error: libopenraw.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

What hardware and drivers do you use? (xorg-video-intel, nouveau, nvidia?)

Should be resolved in the latest xmonad/xmonad-contrib package.

This bug is still exists in xmonad-0.12-12 and xmonad-contrib-0.12-11.

Sorry, invoke `xmonad --recompile' to generate a new binary should fix this.

Confirmed fixed for me, thanks Jelle!

Same. Problem fixed after doing 'xmonad --recompile' (and restarting X if needed).
