Description musiphil 2004-07-21 04:39:13 UTC 
I found out this bug while using GIMP-2.0.1.
( http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=141841 )

On a Korean version of Windows XP, make a file with filename "미현.rtf" [b9 cc
c7 f6 2e 72 74 66], and open a file dialog in that directory in GIMP. Then GIMP
crashes with the message:

    GLib-ERROR **: gmem.c:140: failed to allocate 2147483649 bytes
    aborting...
Comment 1 Owen Taylor 2004-07-24 18:16:41 UTC 
Can you get a backtrace of where the crash ocurs - run it under a debugger
and put a breakpoint on g_logv().

(This is not a GLib error, but some other part of the stack, most likely.)
Comment 2 musiphil 2004-07-24 18:52:38 UTC 
I have installed GIMP from a pre-compiled binary, so I'm afraid I have a long
way ahead before setting up a debugging environment on my system. I hope I'll be
able to do it, anyway.
