I did post a patched version a long time ago that worked for some people
but it was for Intrepid so is now out of date. I'm still running
Intrepid so that makes it difficult for me to help.

It appears to me that there is more than one bug if a fix works for some
but not for all. This makes the issue very confusing to a developer to
fix.

Can I suggest that anyone who still has the bug does the following;

Install strace if it isn't already installed
Close all gedits
>From a terminal, run: "strace gedit 2>&1|grep -v strace > /tmp/strace.log"
In the gedit that runs, do as little as possible to reproduce the fault
As soon as the fault occurs, go back to the terminal and press Ctrl-C to stop 
the logging immediately

Then post the files /tmp/strace.log and /proc/mounts making sure that
they don't contain any confidential information you don't want to
reveal, as well as the filename and location that you were saving to so
the logs can be searched easily. strace.log will be quite large.

This information is essential for a developer to figure out what is
going on without just guessing. I can't promise anything though - the
amount of effort required all depends on the results.
