Thanks for your report, but unfortunately I can't reproduced the bug,
though I'm also using GTK+ 2.6.1. (I'm using ubuntu.) 

Uim uses other process 'uim-helper-server' to communicate with other
processes via Unix Domain socket. uim-helper-server is a server to relay
messages.

In itinialization process, uim attempts to connect the helper-server. If
couldn't connect, then they exec helper-server, and retry to connect to
helper-server. Something wrong happened to this process, "fail to create
socket: Too many open files". may occur.

I'm guessing your system has a piece of old uim. What happens if you
remove all uim stuff and reinstall them?

You should remove these files if exists to clean up your system.

/usr/lib/libuim*
/usr/share/uim
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/uim.pc
/usr/bin/uim-*
/usr/local/lib/libuim*
/usr/local/share/uim
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/uim.pc
/usr/local/bin/uim-*
