Still running 1.2.5, but having sudden troubles

My formerly reliable RH 9 machine has suddenly developed several performance problems, GIMP having among the worst.

1) When I click on the Crop too, sometimes it crashes with this error:

LibGimp-WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read: unexpected EOF

Most times it works just fine.

2) However, these messages come up regularly while working, heaps and mounds of them:

Gimp-CRITICAL **: file gimpdrawable.c: line 249 (gimp_drawable_gimage): assertion `GIMP_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)' failed.

Gtk-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GtkObject'

Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtksignal.c: line 919 (gtk_signal_disconnect): assertion `object != NULL' failed.

Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkentry.c: line 440 (gtk_entry_set_text): assertion `text != NULL' failed.

3) And then when I close GIMP, I get:

Gimp-WARNING **: swap file not empty: "/home/jimc/.gimp-1.2/gimpswap.5159"

5439488 - 5505024

Is there something simple I can do with my current Gimp to repair what used to work just fine?

Thanks--
