 > This is weird I think. Anyways, I guess that if there's a bug, it
 doesn't seem to be in gnome-screenshot. Maybe after taking the screenshot,
 i.e. after performing some calls to X11, Gtk+ comes to a bad state or
 something; I think this is important to note, the crash happens after
 taking the screenshot.

 Just moved this port from my personal test branch to GNOME-3/stable
 (r119586) and rebuilt it using the latest gtk3 (3.12.1). Running gnome-
 screenshot
 from the command line (in a OS X terminal window) causes the screen to
 blink and a png the size of the screen is created but the content is all
 black.  Error message but no crash observed.
 {{{
 $ gnome-screenshot -f test.png
 ** Message: Unable to use GNOME Shell's builtin screenshot interface,
 resorting to fallback X11.
 $ file test.png
 test.png: PNG image data, 1680 x 1028, 8-bit/color RGB, non-interlaced
 }}}

 Attempting a screenshot of a window with -w option gives the same result,
 png is still the size of the screen not the window.  Content is black.

 {{{
 $ gnome-screenshot -w -f test-window.png
 ** Message: Unable to use GNOME Shell's builtin screenshot interface,
 resorting to fallback X11.
 $ file test-window.png
 test-window.png: PNG image data, 1680 x 1028, 8-bit/color RGB, non-
 interlaced
 }}}

 Finally if I open an xterm and run the window test from there, I at least
 get a file that is the size of the window but still black content.

 {{{
 $ gnome-screenshot -w -f test-xterm-screenshot.png
 ** Message: Unable to use GNOME Shell's builtin screenshot interface,
 resorting to fallback X11.
 $ file test-xterm-screenshot.png
 test-xterm-screenshot.png: PNG image data, 484 x 338, 8-bit/color RGBA,
 non-interlaced
 }}}

 Submitted port version is 3.10.1 but latest available is 3.12.0 so it
 probably should be updated before any further testing.
