Windows: "Metal" theme crashes Gtk2 theme selector

[Hemanshu Kumar]

Hi

I am using GnuCash 2.6.4-1 on Windows 8.1.

When I use the Gtk2 Theme Selector program, selecting the "Metal" theme in
the list (i.e. merely highlighting it, without pressing "OK") immediately
crashes the program, with a Runtime Error being reported by Microsoft
Visual C++ Runtime library in the program gtk2_prefs.exe

Please advise how to fix this.

thanks
Hemanshu
