Menu placed partly outside screen, maybe related to GEDIT_IS_MENU_EXTENSION assertion failure

The menu in the text editor app (gedit) gets placed too far to the right so that part of it ends up outside the screen:

This is directly after reflashing with Byzantium.

For comparison, here is how that menu gets placed on a desktop GNOME system:

There, it looks like the menu has been carefully shifted left just enough to make it fit inside the gedit window. But on the Librem 5 that does not seem to happen, for some reason.

The log from sudo journalctl shows the following:
