Built the binary packages[1] with mterry's patch, it seems fixed the issue and works fine. Need more test though.

I've been getting this crash when I log in too. Could it also be related to the fact that at the roughly the same time as this crash started occuring, thunderbird started occasionally hammering the CPU at 100% for long periods of time with the unity sidebar icon flickering? When it does so, there is often also a python script hammering another core at 100%, running this script: /usr/share/ibus/gtk/main.py.

  * Always use a dynamic char* when dealing with text events. We were
    using a static text, then allocating dtext causing ibus to get
    confused on what to use. (LP: #1219330)
  * Greek does not play nice with XmbLookupString and gives us a size 0
    for the event string size. So if we run into the status
    XLookupKeySym, look it up using XLookupString. This way pinyin will
    still work as it did before the greek fix went in last week. (LP:
    #1219432)
  * Gracefully handle ibus_bus_get_config returning NULL. (LP: #1047944)

  [ Stephen M. Webb ]
  * initialize all fields of the test results structure to avoid
    segfaults when Unity support is not available (lp: #1226737). (LP:
    #1226737)
