What you're trying to do (context menus) is not supported yet.
Hopefully that's the cause of the crash. Could you try something else
that does not use context menus. You can for instance create regular
menus in the figure menubar, create controls like buttons, sliders,
edits...

Some time ago I asked on the mailing list whether anybody had some
samples using uiXXXX objects. If you have some, feel free to send them to
me, such that I can use them for testing when developing. Note that the
link above didn't work.
