I can't reproduce it.

>From the backtrace it seems that it's using qtengine:

#10 /usr/lib/libX11.so.6(_XReply+0x243) [0x7fea4c616673]                        
  
#11 /usr/lib/libX11.so.6(XGetGeometry+0x8f) [0x7fea4c5f1cff]

#16 /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 [0x7fea4fdb8908]

and AFAIR we've had bugs in the past that were actually due to qtengine,
and not bugs in emacs.
Maybe ask the OP to try to reproduce the problem with another theme...
