[Gimp-developer] bogus floating selection code?

[David Gowers]

I had just pasted a piece of image (copied from a layer without alpha,
pasted back on to a layer without alpha) and, as I clicked to anchor
it, GIMP crashed with this message:

ERROR:gegl-node.c:1929:gegl_node_remove_child: assertion failed:
(child_priv->parent == self || child_priv->parent == NULL)

I'm guessing this is a fairly simple mistake, so I posted here (mainly
for Mitch's benefit).  It's difficult to reproduce, though.
I had only used pencil (with 1px brush) and bucketfill (threshold = 0)
before the crash occurred.
