I can confirm that with Win2k and latest build. Any switching to Selector tool from any other tool crashes, you don't even need to create a text. On XP it's ok, though.
I believe I filed a bug about this a while back actually -- it's not a Windows-specific problem; on Unix there are similar crashes with certain X servers (e.g. Xvnc).
To the best of my recollection, the problem appears to be some detail with inappropriate cleanup of the tool's cursor resource in src/event-context.cpp; possibly a GDK refcounting issue. Unfortunately I have not had time to investigate the relevant code in depth.
