Using my newly installed JDS system, GTK file chooser UI (in case it's relevant, don't think it is). Build from last Sunday (branch ui_cleanup2, also not relevant - but maybe you've already fixed this). Choose Open Project from the main menu. The file chooser opens on your home directory. Click .. in the file tree. The attached exception comes up.

You tried it in GTK?
Yes.
