Emacs GTK error. Can't open an X windows.

Hi,
Whenever I try to open emacs, I get the following errors:

(emacs:8006): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion `extra_space >= 0' failed

(emacs:8006): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_distribute_natural_allocation: assertion `extra_space >= 0' failed

I've searched for the error on the internet but I haven't come up with anything satisfactory to get emacs running. Does anyone have a good idea of how to get my emacs up and running again?

Thank you.

Works for me. I'm running [testing] 32-bit.
