That's another instance of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675581. Unfortunately that one is rather hard and brittle to fix, so it didn't happen yet. As for libwnck, there it is pretty much a case of "don't do that then", I'm afraid. You can get the same crash by using the g_object_new() constructor for that class (which is what your Python code does).
