This has been fixed sometimes ago.

It does not help a lot. The most interesting information would be what was the program doing when the first critical was fired? To make it crash at that moment, you might use:
G_DEBUG="fatal_criticals" gchempaint

Of course, you need a dbg package to get a meaningful trace.

Hmm, very strange. I don't see the relation with iceweasel. Just there is clearly an initialization issue with this version.
0.8.7 is pretty old and I have no lenny around at the moment, so I can't test that. Unless somebody can provide a stack trace, I'll be unable to fix it until at least september.

gchempaint crashes when started:
$ gchempaint

(process:8349): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: /build/buildd-glib2.0_2.16.6-2-i386-
PgybGk/glib2.0-2.16.6/gobject/gtype.c:2248: initialization assertion failed,
use IA__g_type_init() prior to this function

(process:8349): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_new: assertion
`G_TYPE_IS_OBJECT (object_type)' failed

(process:8349): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT
(object)' failed
Segmentation fault

The only way to avoid this is to start iceweasel before gchempaint is started. With an open iceweasel gchempaint starts without a problem. If Iceweasel is closed again, gchempaint crashes again and is unusable.

I have already reported this bug to the debian bugzilla:
