In GNUstep from SVN the line in NSBox this is pointing to gets the size 
from the theme. The segmentation fault there could happen if theme is 
nil on that line, that means that something else is horribly broken. 
Would you mind to switch to the GNUstep default theme and try with that?

I had some problems compiling Cenon on a current GNUstep version. The 
code there still uses sel_eq() where GNUstep has switched to 
sel_isEqual() and it is not prepared for the switch to 64bit. For this 
reason I cannot check this problem myself.

I added the Cenon support mail address to this reply. Maybe Georg 
Fleischmann is able to fix these issues and then I will have a chance to 
look into the GNUstep problem.
