We're encountering the same problem here.
gnome-control-center
(gnome-control-center:28288): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gnome-control-center' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length erro'. (Details: serial 153 error_code 16 request_code 147 minor_code 1) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Is there a workaround we could use to be able to launch gnome-control-center while you're working on a fix ?

We will get to fixing this issue soon.

I actually just tested this on a Debian jessie X2Go Server.
I use MATE desktop, so I launched gnome-control-center inside the MATE
session from the command line.
If GLX in x2goagent is disabled [1], then gnome-control-center
launches successfully.
If GLX in x2goagent is enabled, then gnome-control-center crashes,
because it cannot load clutter. This, however, I consider a bug in
gnome-control-center. If a GNOME application cannot load clutter due
to lack of sufficient GLX support, the GNOME application (i.e.,
gnome-control-center) should fall-back to a non-GLX mode.
Could you provide the exact steps for reproducing this issue?
