I noticed it, usually happens when you quit and is still connected to an
engine or server, most probably a race condition in the idle hook. GTK is
a pain to debug. Most probably the solution is to make the delete event
close the connection and quit only after the cleanups occur.

It also crashes when the requested engine is not found or answers in a
non-expected way to the protocol object, I'll probably look into solving
this problem with engines for 0.1.8.
