Start gimp (and other GTK apps!) with the --no-xshm flag. I'm not sure
what the deal is (i.e. whether the problem is with the kernel or with
the X server), but the application can apparently not access X server
shared memory, which it tries to do by default.
Unfortunately the library doesn't fall back to --no-xshm automatically
if it fails at first...
