Screen shot of error message

When attempting to use the Create text layer on an image, GIMP crashes with the error messages shown in the attached jpeg and gives the problem signature listed below.
This began just after installing Windows 7 Service pack 1 on both my 64 bit and 32 bit machines.  It is an issue in both single-window and non single window modes.  This is not an issue with GIMP 2.6.11 nor was it an issue prior to upgrading to Service Pack 1.
Re-installing GIMP 2.7.1 does not work.
Also, for what it’s worth, once the Single-window mode is selected it remains selected (checked) even when it is not applied (ie not selected).  When deselected and then reselected it enters the single-window mode
