 I used macports to download and install GIMP v2.6.4 a few days ago, and
 found this issue (below).  This morning I used macports to update to GIMP
 v2.6.5 and the issue persisted.  I have filed a bug at the Gnome Bugzilla
 site as well.

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. Launch gimp from terminal ($open-x11 gimp)
 2. Open image file, any jpeg it doesn't seem to matter. Has also happened
 when selecting a new image file.
 3. Select any tool, seems to happen with particular frequency using the
 lasso but it has also happened after selecting 'File' menu.  It does not
 seem to be consistently caused by any one selection, but the program
 always hangs.  It cannot be used for any period longer than 2 minutes.


 Stack trace:
 Because the program hangs and doesn't crash I cannot get a good report
 from gdb. If someone could provide guidance on how to produce a better
 stack trace please let me know!

 After the app hangs the spinney ball will stay indefinitely.  However, if
 I force-quit the application I receive the following.
