Unless you rebuilt with the latest GNUstep, this might be fixed.

-base, -back and -gui are not up to date in Debian. Despite a recent release, 
-back and -gui are (rightly) not updated, because they depend on a new -base 
release. And that was itself blocked due to a confusing issue in interaction 
with NSThread which, as of Josh’s email, seems like it might be a libobjc2 
runtime issue.

Please confirm whether you’ve rebuilt with latest -make, -base, -gui and -back 
from the source code repos.
