Description
When I use winit in Rust along with nvdialog-rs I get a segmentation fault, apparently backtracing all the way back to Gtk.
Here's the issue on the NvDialog repo, if it helps,
and here's the backtrace from gdb (NOTE: It's the full backtrace which includes some irrelevant information).

Research direction
Start by reproducing the segmentation fault with Rust, winit, and nvdialog-rs, then inspect the linked NvDialog issue 39 and the provided gdb backtrace. No repository file or test is named; done means identifying the interaction that causes the crash and documenting or fixing it in winit if it belongs there.
