+wxPrintPreview object in the
+printing sample, it fails.
+The reason is the wxGetDefaultDeviceName
+function in file msw/dcprint.cpp. In line 253
+the memory is freed, and then
+the pointer to the freed memory
+is used.

+DETAILS: I tested wxWindows/GTK+ with a simple example which
+uses frame, menu, and statusbar. But when I selected
+a menu item which creates a simple 'about dialog'
+several times, the program crashed with segmentation fault.
+I traced it with gdb, and I got this message:
+
+Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault
+0x408f1796 in match_theme_image ()
+  from /usr/lib/gtk/themes/engines/libpixmap.so
+
+I guessed from this message that the pixmap routine in
+GTK+ theme engine caused crash. So, I changed GTK+ theme
+to default which doesn't use any pixmaps and tested
+again. This time, the program didn't crash.
+
+I'm using Redhat 6.1 with egcs 1.1.2.
