gdb backtrace

Distribution: Arch Linux 
Downstream report:  https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/20482

If UIM is installed, certain programs will segfault when run from within gnome.
This is manifested (so far) only in the VLC gui. Eliminating the glob from the
end of the uim entry in /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules allows VLC to start
normally, until uim is selected for input, whereupon it segfaults again. It is
clear from the backtrace that uim is the component actually crashing.

Expected behavior: Shouldn't crash.

Actual behavior: Crashes consistently on startup.
