filedialog on linux

I am having trouble getting the filedialog to work on linux, either with 
the ubuntu package (hangs), or building from source (SEGV).

e.g.

from visual.filedialog import get_file
fd = get_file()
data=fd.readlines()
print data
fd.close()

This will generate a dialog box, but after selection, it hangs in the 
package version.
When I build visual from source (5.71) - it gives a SEGV:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread 0x7fffe7fbc700 (LWP 26050)]
0x00007ffff46612b0 in Gtk::Window::get_position(int&, int&) const () 
from /usr/lib/libgtkmm-2.4.so.1

which is a call from src/gtk2/display.cpp in 
display::on_window_configure - probably trying to get the position of 
the (deleted) window...

Any suggestions?

Thanks...
