This looks like a gparted bug, rather than a libgtkmm-3.0-1v5 bug.
GParted::Utils::mk_pixbuf calls Gtk::Widget::render_icon_pixbuf,
presumably a wrapper around gtk_widget_render_icon_pixbuf(), which
is documented to return NULL if the "stock ID" is not known (as it
presumably is in this case); but then it calls theme_icon->get_width()
and theme_icon->get_height() without first checking whether theme_icon is
a null pointer.
gtk_widget_render_icon_pixbuf() is documented as having been deprecated
since GTK 3.10, released in 2013. The recommended replacement is
gtk_icon_theme_load_icon().
