Hi,
I can reproduce it too, the same way (previously I got other crashes,
but they are fixed now). I recompiled all of core. I did not reinstall
the themes, but Neos and Sleek are thematic only themes, they contain no
code.
I open the theme panel and select a theme. I will get a crash. To me it
looks like a buffer overrun when creating the signature or something
like that.

On linux x86-32/gcc 4.6.2 I get:
unknown type eos. The next step in theming, but with a strong root in
NeXT.Abnai

Backtrace stopped: previous frame inner to this frame (corrupt stack?)
On FreeBSD, when I try the same I get no warning, no crash, just a hang.

I was not aware of a bug in the theme panel. Could you please give the
details on how to reproduce it?
The back trace you report looks somewhat corrupted. The theme
description ("Neos. The next step in theming, but with a strong root
in NeXT.") is getting used as a selector name. This shouldn't happen
in our code and it definitely doesn't happen on line 182 in
GSThemeInspector.m. You will need to set a breakpoint a bit before
that line to find out what actually goes on.
Before you do this, could you please make sure that you have
recompiled all of GNUstep plus all the themes you have installed.
