Interrupting Geany (Ctrl-C in terminal) gave no additional output, above.

I repeated the above (Geany in gdb), this time halting gdb (Ctrl-C in terminal) when Geany was frozen.  Geany went to a slightly greyed-out (non-responsive but still visible, readable) window and remained as a process in the System Monitor.  It finally closed when I quit gdb (below):

As menioned, the 

(geany:23332): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_tree_model_get_iter_first: assertion `GTK_IS_TREE_MODEL (tree_model)' failed

lines result from File Save operations.

I hope that this helps; Although knowledgeable in Linux operation, I am entirely unfamiliar with debugging (gdb, etc.)
