No crash, the spell check works perfect here. Yes, I did close, start and 
close gedit again. I did removed gedit-plugins by myself and upgrade gedit 
to 2.3.3 few days ago. But, I am not sure what you did with gedit by 
compile without Gnome libraries, which I just leave everything by default 
from Joe. You should show how you compile, what CFLAGS and many more if you 
are expecting for the more help.

BTW: My system is 5.1-CURRENT yesterday.
