OK. Judging from the stacktrace, it's wxWidgets that's at fault here.

Unfortunately there are a number of such bugs that are not actually in
pgAdmin and we've been unable to get fixed. That's one of the reasons
why we're starting work on pgAdmin 4 which won't use wxWidgets. It
might be worth trying a debug build, but I'm not going to hold my
breath.

wx3.0 *should* work, but most of us are still using 2.8 so it's
definitely not as well tested.
