Gvim crashing in xmonad

If I start gvim in an xterm in xmonad, gvim always crashes when I try to
close it.

The following messages appear:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[xcb] Most likely this is a multi-threaded client and XInitThreads has not been called
[xcb] Aborting, sorry about that.
gvim: ../../src/xcb_io.c:273: poll_for_event: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost' failed.


Vim: Caught deadly signal ABRT

Press ENTER or type command to continueVim: Finished.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


If I use vim instead of gvim, everything is normal. If I use "gvim &" or
start gvim from a menu (dmenu), everything works correctly.

Any clues to what is happening here?
